   As theorized by another poster on this thread, that sounds like it's    
   accurate.   
      
    Ga> Anyone else seeing this?  Not sure what else to try here.  Thanks.   
      
    ec> Their website loads for me, on ports 80 and 443, but that's not to say   
    ec> it's the same server that handles whatever bbslink.js is calling. Are   
    ec> you able to view their site in a browser? If not, maybe your address   
    ec> got blocked for some reason.   
      
   The website loads/works fine for me.   
      
    ec> Beyond that, can't say more without seeing bbslink.js.   
      
   There were a couple of other responses in here from other sysops who are    
   seeing the same thing on their boards.  Appears to be an issue on the    
   BBSLink side, I will contact the operator there to let them know.   
      
   Thanks for your reply!
