Hi all,

If you're having trouble accessing SI its because SI has been virused. Here's a note a received from the webmistress:

Silicon Investor has been experiencing technical
problems due to a hacker invasion and a Windows NT
security glitch called "Bonk". For more details
on this glitch, see:

I assure you we are doing everything we can to establish
