Looks like the web2 address is the only one working right now, but I imagine all the traffic is now on that server so performance is suffering (but the site is working).

Again, same experience here.
But I assume (maybe the tech staff can confirm) that when a server goes down they get a page so they can fix it.
Hopefully that will be soon.

It was so very slow for a while. Now it seems to have sped up. Hope the return in speed is not just temporary.

I'm having loads of problems both yesterday and today. I thought maybe something was wrong with my browser (Safari) but Explorer is worse.

FT has been extremely slow for me this weekend on both IE6 & Firefox. Every once in a while it speeds up, but most of the time it is moving at a snail's pace.

I am now home in SEA and neither www.flyertalk.com nor the IP (http://64.78.185.85/forumsfr.shtml) are working. Still 404.
web2.flyertalk.com continues to work and speed is fine, however most of the graphics on the page (including all buttons and emoticons) will not load. Stalls with 26 graphic items remaining when posting and 36 on viewing.
All of this is on IE6.

Awful. Most of the time I get Cannot Find server messages.
