it's back online and this is the homepage msg:


>>>>>




"still working on this

just got back online

please restart your bittorrent client!

more later

edit: we are getting thousands of new visitors which is causing the servers to
overload. we are disabling a few of the site features to help the situation, but
we'll probably need to order faster hardware, so it might be a few days until
everything resolves."

thing with the dmca and other insanity.

whole time......since yesterday i might add. i miss it! may i can't get through

something to do with it?

for now, it seems that demoniod is still fighting!

now these headlines will give you some info on what's going on. however, i have
found no news articles that give the whole story (what else is new...) there are
articles that report that the netherlands are being blocked but, i'm in canada
and still couldn't get through. using an american proxy solves the problem,
though i don't yet understand why. if you need access to your demonoid account
simply use one of the american proxies at

cheers.

# update: demonoid will be taken offline by brein
afterdawn.com - 12 jul 2007
http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/10383.cfm

it seems brein has won their battle against demonoid although the victory is
very limited. today, brein announced that leaseweb has agreed to reveal the
identity of the owner of demonoid as well as take the site offline, this time
for good.

**however, demonoid has been preparing for the move and last week transferred
their domain to canada, so they will not be going offline, at least for the time
being. they are also out of the jurisdiction of brein now, but the owner's
revealed identity may prove damaging. **

# leaseweb reveals demonoid.com's owner
slyck, ny - 11 jul 2007
http://www.slyck.com/story1533_leaseweb_reveals_demonoidcoms_owner

in a bitter battle of wills between leaseweb and the dutch copyright authority
brein, it appears that brein has won. brein announced today that leaseweb has
agreed to divulge the identity of the registered owner of demonoid.com, as well
as sign the cease and desist demand which would take the site offline.
according to brein, it appears the leaseweb waited to the bitter end before
divulging demonoid.com's owner. additionally, and perhaps most importantly,
leaseweb also divulged the banking information of demonoid.com's owner.


# demonoid returns
slyck, ny - 4 jul 2007
http://www.slyck.com/story1524_demonoid_returns

the private/semi-private/occasionally-open-registration bittorrent tracker
demonoid has returned, albeit at a slightly deteriorated state. under attack
from the dutch copyright traffic cop brein since last month, the site was forced
offline in late june.
more specifically, brein targeted demonoid's web host, the dutch based web
hosing company leaseweb. brein filed a legal complaint against the company,
attempting to force leaseweb to disable the site and divulge the identity of the
owner. brein won the case, however leaseweb has yet to divulge the owner's
identity pending an appeal.

since then.

yes, demonoid's site is down. the tracker is still working fine
and dandy. so i'm going to use some common sense here, and say that they are
updating their site. also note that they said before, when they came back,
that blackouts like these (or whiteouts as the case may be) are to expected.

bear in mind that the website *always* went down on friday mornings for
scheduled system maintenance - it may just have been the regular procedure in
action.

admin : there is a private tracker request thread use that one

demoniod seems fine now. i just logged-on without an american proxy. however,
the site doesn't post any news about it. just business as usual i guess.
