They've had their account temporarily suspended by their ISP.
Maybe they simply exceeded their agreed bandwith, or maybe they've been shut down by the govt for saying boo to a bush. AYN are also down at present, as they're hosted by the same ISP: http://www.anarchistyouth.net/
I expect they'll say what happened soon enough, when the site comes back up.
"In an extraordinary move, the US-based hosts of Muslim Associations of Britain’s website, mabonline.net, shut down the site on Sunday causing thousands to be denied access to MAB’s online services and information".
It seems pretty obvious that to shut MAB's website down is a direct attack on MAB's co-ordination of protests before bu$h's visit.
The STWC website may also be hit? (well maybe not, the self proclaimed leaders of the anti-war movement and their 'stewards' only shuffle orderly round the streets arm in arm with the cops keeping everybody else in line.)
Indymedia ... hold strong ... the same may happen here?

Can anyone post suggestions as to which ISP's have the best track records in not censoring stuff? I guess we could work backwards and start with AOL!
