Just went to the site in Internet Explorer and it showed up but I then pressed refresh and it said Site Not Found, "No web site is configured at this address." So it must have cached it earlier. The site is still down. It didn't give a standard error message though, so I don't know if this is intentional or not.

Edit: I believe the error code it is returning in the headers when it shows the Site Not Found page is actually a 404 error.

NRU Site Back Up!

Press release in news section:
http://www.nru.us/Press_Releases/20030830.htm

NRU network reconnects to the Internet
New River University's internal network was shutdown briefly on August 29th. Craig Becker, head of NRU security was brief in a statement regarding the shutdown, "We detected multiple attempts to scan NRU's internal network, we logged several attempts for DNS Zone file dumps, ports were being scanned, the list goes on and on. It was a matter of time until attempts of breaking into secure intranet sites would come. We shut down the sites, secured them and now everything is back up and running. I would discourage the person or persons who attempted to get into places they shouldn't have. NRU security will protect assets by any means possible and prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. The good news is NRU network wasn't affected by either of the major threats this week from the blaster worm or the sobig.f virus. NRU Network Operations deserves a pat on the back for their excellence in protecting students, staff, and faculty machines."

The "Back to NRU" button leads to 'http://www.thisisnotagame.com/press_releases.htm'.

The frontpage for that website has not changed.
