Rapidshare Down

Is it just me that cant access rapidshare. Been trying for the last
few hours but cannot resolve the ip. Cant access via proxy either.

http://www.rapidshare.com

users cannot get on at least in Birmingham , so stick you ISP as well

Looks like this was the problem:


20. January 2008 - Problems accessing RapidShare

Unfortunately, starting at 5 pm CET, one of our carriers experienced a
severe technical problem with their hardware, causing a loss of 50
gigabit of bandwidth. Therefore RapidShare was unavailable for several
hours. We already have taken steps to avoid this particular problem in
the future.
