WinCustomize Experiencing Technical Difficulties
Thursday, May 15, 2003 by T-Man | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Sigh. Unfortunately we are experiencing technical difficulties with WinCustomize. Our main server has died on us and we are current in the process of trying to get WinCustomize up and running on a temporary server until the problem can be corrected.
During this time the Skin Libraries will be closed. We apologize for the inconvience and hope to have the problem corrected as soon as possible.

T-Man has got WC News working for the moment and Stardock Central is running through a backup server. Not 100% sure every component will be happy.
I don't think anything else is still down or impacted by this, but we'll keep at it.

Doh! I told you you shouldn't spill your coffee on the server, T-Man.

Knowing the backend, it's pretty darn amazing that even this page is up. The redundancy is pretty impressive, we're talking a complete catastrophic loss of a server right now. Hopefully we'll be back up tomorrow.

Guys, take your time. Sure, it's a minor annoyance for us, but don't stress too much - we will survive!

Does this means that Stardock Central is not working either?
If so that the text on the FAQ page should be changed.
https://www.stardock.com/support/support.asp?product=55
It now reads:
I keep trying to register my application under Stadock Central but it keeps telling me my registration failed.
There are two likely causes for this:
1) You are entering your registration under the wrong product name. For example, if you are registrering Galactic Civlizations .......
2) The second most likely cause is that you have either entered your serial number incorrectly or you are using the wrong email address. ......
But you should add:
3) Stardock servers are down!!!
Again, best of luck fixing the issues.

Good luck - hope it's an honest problem and not the work of another idiot hacker.
