I think it would be a good idea if MH let folks know by a friendly PM or e.mail when there is a problem with their site I recently spent 24 hours with mine down and no information from anyone I sent 3 e-mails and left 2 phone messages at the MH office in Florida ..to date no response, I thought it was my server, so I spent many hours trying to solve it. yes I agree with the Poster thanks MH
