HDF is having Server Problems

Before we get a dozen threads complaining about how slow the forum is running I wanted to let you guys know that the company that handles our servers is having some sort of problem. They are working on it and should have it fixed over the next 24 hours (I hope). Please be patient. It is completely out of our control.

I have noticed the slowness. It has been taking about a minute or two to load a webpage. For me the browser seemed to be hanging on "contacting ad.doubleclck.net" There has been some other websites that I visit that seem to be doiing the same thing. The only difference is the pages load before the the ad.doubleclick.net times out. On HDfroums the content of the page only loads after ad.doubleclick.net times out. I have resolved it on my computer by adding an entry to my local computers host file that points to my local computer when looking for ad.doubleclick.net. The pages load in just a few seconds now.
