A reader wrote in and asked us if we could get to kaspersky.com, the antivirus vendor.  We can't get there either.

We have watched their DNS lookup change from IP to IP.  So they may be doing some updating just now.  We'll keep an eye on it.

Update #1 -- Kaspersky pinged us.  They are awake... :)   They are aware of the problem and are working on it.  Thanks for getting back to us!

Update #2 -- Kaspersky tells us that this does NOT affect updates.  Only the websites.

Update #3 -- Kaspersky is back up as of 13:08 EST. -- Thanks Jim!
