The gesture is also for me because I am from the middle east.
I cannot use the computer that I installed Junior9 to
connect(I did not check now because I am not near the right computer but I
checked it some hours ago and also yesterday and before it) and get the message
that the site is down.
I thought that maybe there is a problem in that computer and Junior9 is not the
reason but peter skinner reported that he can connect from Hiarcs and cannot
connect from Junior in the same computer.


Maybe I did a mistake when I believe peter skinner and there is some virus in my
computer that prevent me to connect from that computer and installing Junior is
not the problem.

Maybe I am lying when I say that I cannot connect from the computer that Junior
is installed.


You must believe in one of them because after all you cannot take everything
that I say seriously because of some suspect of me that turned out to be wrong.

I think that we need to be careful from viruses and downloading some program
when you know nothing about the author is not recomended because it may be a
virus.
It is not something against a specific programmer.
