8/7/10 - 8:12am EST - dnsmadeeasy.com name servers having issues resolving domain names. First since 2003 that I have ever noticed. It appears to be intermittent. If your domain name is using *.dnsmadeeasy.com as the dns or ns1.stormer.com, you may notice some intermittent problems during this time period. I was able to login to the dme system and submit a ticket. I'm waiting for their response, which I am happy to wait for as long as they are getting the issue resolved. Thanks for your understanding. Everything on 'this' end is up and running and verified. You can follow their updates to this situation on their twitter account located here: http://twitter.com/dnsmadeeasy/

An update from itransact.com which apparently uses dnsmadeeasy.com for their dns needs also reported:

-----------------
Our DNS provider is experiencing a large DDOS attack this morning. This has caused users to not be able to resolve our domain names at times. The provider has posted messages on twitter acknowledging the issue and stating that they are working to restore full services. At the moment, our domains seem to be resolving fine and all our services are available.
