Thanks Eric, I was about to come and say that! One thing that might help (do it tomorrow!) is to open a command prompt (for you Windows guys) by going to Start > Run and typing "cmd" (then click OK/press enter). Should bring up a black box. Type "ipconfig /flushdns" and press enter. Sometimes this speeds up resolution issues related to DNS.

I've already grabbed a local copy of the entire website. Once I have his permission, I will be posting my mirror of the site online. This should help reduce any downtime in the future.

btw, everyone who said they'd be willing to throw a few bucks his way to keep the site going... put your money where your mouth is: http://clarks-garage.com/shop-manual/support.htm

btw... if the site doesn't work for you yet, you may have to wait up to 48 hours for your ISP to refresh their records. One thing that *may* help speed things up for you is to type the command "ipconfig /FlushDNS" into the "run" box under the start menu.

Currently unavailable to receive funds via paypal... I surely hope he doesn't decline our offer. I am going old fashioned (which I loathe) and am writing a check and putting it in the mail .

I am writing a check for 25 bucks -- challenge to you all to step up and join me.
