It looks like Insanity Inc is down again. Try following Gawa's procedure: http://forums.acdev.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4515

thx Para.. i undid what i did and cleared that all up 8)


"Add the following lines below the '127.0.0.1 localhost' line:


Code:

127.0.0.1 insanity-inc.org

127.0.0.1 www.insanity-inc.org


Save the file and close it.


Step 2: go to your start menu and choose 'run'. Type the following command:

Code:

ipconfig /flushdns

. The output should look something like:

Code:

L:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC>ipconfig /flushdns


Windows IP Configuration


Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.


L:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC>


Done. Restart Decal, it should start almost immediately and cause no problems when logging in."


**To undo this workaround, go back to the hosts files and remove the two entries you just added. Don't remove anything else. Save the file and execute step two again.**

the HOSTS file "hack" should no longer be needed as the server issues should now be resolved.


If you've made the changes to your HOSTS file, I'd recommend un-doing it at this time so that when the time comes to update Decal, you won't have issues with installation or other things. (We don't need the support issues from people who changed their HOSTS file and forgot to change it back before updating)
