"The BYOND Hub is currently unreachable"

SimYouLater	The little red rectangle with this text appears ever time I log in. I have looked for firewalls on my computer and other than Windows Firewall there was nothing. Windows Firewall already had exceptions for BYOND. Disabling Windows Firewall briefly to test did nothing new. I'm stumped. What can I do?

A.T.H.K	Can you ping hub.BYOND.com? You can use ping via the command prompt.

SimYouLater	I already tried when my forum search turned this up prior to me making this topic: Lummox JR wrote: Go to Start \| Run and type "cmd". Then type "ping hub.byond.com" at the prompt. If you can't reach the hub, that's the problem. However since you can reach the site, it does seem somewhat unlikely. However upon trying again this morning it seems to be working fine. Thanks for the help.
