NO problem here...are you trying to open it from your work computer. It may be a blocked site.

Subject: Re: Scrabulous.com Thu Aug 07, 2008 8:32 am

I'm trying to open it from home and am now wondering if it depends on who your internet provider is.

This morning i cant open it wierd

Subject: Re: Scrabulous.com Thu Aug 07, 2008 8:47 am

I cant open it. Im getting an error message

Subject: Re: Scrabulous.com Thu Aug 07, 2008 9:37 am

Yesterday YES, today NO. "Cannot display this website."

I read that the original Scrabble (Parker Bros.??) won a lawsuit against Scarbulous.com and perhaps this is the end of it. That's what I understood from the news. That it must be removed as it was an infringement on copyright.

As I understand it the copyright infringement issue did not apply to scrabulous.com but rather to facebook's version of scrabble also named scrabulous...although im sure its only a matter of time before hasbro expands their lawsuit to include scrabulous.com
