Temporally connection issues with 'totalcmd.net'

What's happening with the site?
Has domain reg. expired and been intercepted?
I can still access through IP

Alas, it is not the most stable site on the web.

adding 2 hosts:
93.170.128.253 totalcmd.net
109.237.110.23 wincmd.ru

got me far - most of the site and dls are working

It's not just you! http://wincmd.ru looks down from here.
Check another site?

http://93.170.128.253 shows totalcmd.net content

http://109.237.110.23 does not show wincmd.ru, but shows some brick-manufacturers site...

Accessing sites using IP doesn't work because Your browser isn't sending their domain in HTTP headers!
(so 93.170.128.253 will only show main page; 109.237.110.23 - different site hosted on the same server)

You must add, mentioned above, 2 entries to your hosts file:
%windir%\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts
Then connect using "totalcmd.net" instead of IP address and everything will work for now. Remove them when (if) site goes back properly.

Both sites are up now again.
Hosts changes are NOT needed any more.

No, they are not, at least not for me. I get this message instead.
Even clearing the DNS cache and ARP didn't work. Seems that my ISP interferes somehow, because it should work for me like for any other due to DNS being successfully resolved and the Google translate of the Russian forum (wincmd.ru) works. Maybe some IXP caching?
