Vnunet in all sorts of trouble

The main site of Dutch publishers VNU is currently in terrible difficulty. The original sign, "Sorry, vnunet.com is temporarily unavailable", has been removed but the site is still working at the pace of a geriatric tortoise.

Despite the fact that most of The Reg's staff are escapees from the Broadwick Street gulag, we are concerned for the site's welfare. We'd been secretly hoping that it would start providing us with some competition. Oh well.

With luck, one of the several hundred people responsible for the site will know what to do and it'll be back and servicing the IT community once again in the not too distant future.
