I was in the middle of a couple of hands earlier, and my Absolute software died on me and kicked me offline. When I tried to sign back on, it said that it was likely my firewall was keeping me from signing on.

I A) Have no idea if I even have a firewall, and B) Don't see how my firewall settings would have changed while i was laying in bed playing poker.

I've tried restarting and reinstalling....Somebody please tell me the server is just down...

Well...I'm logged back in


I can't get to my cashier page though, and no cash games are showing up on the lists

Apparently I'm still at the tables I was at when I got kicked off though, that's what my available account balance indicates...

I had the same problem, same firewall message. I have a firewall, but it's not the problem. I disabled it and the problem was still there. I called AP and they said they were doing an upgrade. They said it would be back in 40 minutes. That was about an hour ago. Still not back.

Getting the same firewall message....

Some poor IT guy is under an amazing amount of pressure right now. I'm guessing down time is very expensive for a poker site....

I've been with them for a year now and it's the first time I've seen it.

By the way, it's back. And now they have turbo tables! Guess it was more than just some server problem. Looks like they were really doing an upgrade. I also discovered for the first time that they have skins available on their website. Just thought I'd mention that in case anybody else didn't know. Their ARP store still sucks, though.
