http://aminet.net/ - Gone?

DDNI · 21 August 2011, 15:03

Hi,

http://aminet.net/ is redirecting to a Russian hosting site.
Anyone else get this?

AmigaFriend · 21 August 2011, 15:05

No, works fine here.

mfilos · 21 August 2011, 15:07

Works here just fine as well.

DH · 21 August 2011, 15:17

Fine here too.

Shoonay · 21 August 2011, 15:21

Strange, works fine here also, but some other guy on a different forum complained about that too.
I told him to scan his computer with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware because that's usually a sign of a trojan that's redirecting, but now... who knows.

BippyM · 21 August 2011, 15:35

Fine on my PC

Russian site on my Amiga, but only for the last hour or two.

Hope it's not the end of Aminet
