BitTorrent Trackers DOWN or BACK UP

does anyone know whats happened to freethscene and scenepalace.org? they've been down for a couple of weeks for me at least. i searched through about the last 10 pages of this thread, but couldn't see any mention, but it was probably longer ago they went down. are they dead?
 
@glen-
i also am not a member, but that is sad news.
unfortunately it it is not even close to the first time i have heard of crap like that.
hope you get it sorted out and come back stronger.
 
Tried the hosts file thing, it didn't work also. And I'm not even a member, so the previous DNS record wasn't cached.

I have successfully tried this on all the boxes I have root on (multiple countries). Your OS may be caching the DNS records, I know Windows does. On XP this can be temporarily disabled eg. by typing net stop "DNS client" in the Run dialog. The above will work for clients when followed by a re-announce, for browsers you have to clear their internal DNS cache which can be done by restarting the browser and clearing the cache (in Firefox: from options->advanced->network), but pressing refresh several times also works.
