The 403 error means it may not be gone for good.. someone could have inadvertently deleted the index page, someone set the permissions wrong to prevent a hacker attack (happens way too often).. bottom line is the site is still being hosted, just not available. I did a "whois" and sent an email to the technical contact, but so far got no response.. they may not be aware of how to fix the problem or don't have a techie anymore.. but since the site is not showing a 404 error, there is hope it will come back spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > Doug, the guy behind autohobbydigest, once was a member here -- and his > nice Web site been around for quite a while, and with a good following. > I'm surprised no one knows the scoop.
