Yes, I have this as well and a few other members too. I had contact about this with Max yesterday, but unfortunately things haven't been solved yet. 

I found myself a way to follow a thread about this on PA. I googled "can't access progarchives" and, as I can't access the site itself, I clicked on "translate this page". this is what I got.

Do you still have problems accessing PA? Our hypothesis is that there is maybe a major DNS update somewhere in Europe that may cause the problem. Still investigating...

Can someone who is not reaching PA can execute this command line on his computer and post the result here please. That may help us to identify the problem.

traceroute: unknown host www.progarchives.com

So do I. But it seems to only occur in certain European countries.

I don't know if it will help but... there is a website called http://who.is. I used it to ping and traceroute progarchives. Here's what I got:

I wouldn't have thought that would make a difference to be honest, I have it as a favourite as I'm sure most regular visitors do and I can't access either.
 
Glad it's not just me. Tried deleting cookies, history etc and from other people having the same problem it's clear that wasn't going to be the answer.

If that is the problem presumably it'll right itself when it's finished, is that correct? Wouldn't other sites also be affected though if that was the case. I can get on any site i want except PA.
 
I'm sure you guy's will get it sorted. Smile

I wish I could give you my access to PA, seen as I've not visited the forum for some time now - nor am I planning to do so in the short term.
