I'm getting pop-ups that I can't d/l from search, although I'm subscribed to search service. Can't get to control panel; tries connecting, but then times out.

No trouble getting to Control Panel here. If it is still happening to you it is probably something between you and the Newsbin server that runs Control Panel.

I had the same message appear. I subsequently had issues downloading files so I attempted a re-install. The 6.42 install failed as it couldn't reach the server which contained the latest executables. I can only assume the two issues are related. Looks like the search and install server may be one and the same. I have posted the install issue separately.

If it helps I am located in the UK, others which don't have issues are probably connecting via a different route which is why they aren't having the same problem.

Search is working here. There's something up though. I can't get to the main website.

Just to be clear, the search itself was working. I just couldn't then d/l from search results. For whatever reason (the control panel/site being unreachable?), I wasn't being verified as a subscriber, I think. The site is reachable now, and most things seem back to normal, but I keep getting a 400 error for one of my servers, so now I've got to figure that out.

We had a couple hours of downtime this morning.
