I can't get into my commission junction account and I'm getting errors when I click on the affiliate ads! Anyone else having trouble with commision junction?

Yea, me too. I can reach their gateway, so a server or load balancer or something must be down.

Yep - Im in the UK and have reported this to cj about 1 hour ago! Can't login to CJ.com and many of the affiliate links do not work although some types still work? Odd one.

Oh, okay. I spoke too soon, I was thinking what did they do, block my ip? They better get back soon, my ads aren't working.

Ive paused my biggest spenders in adwords - I suggest you all do the same! Who knows when they will be back up!

It better be soon! I'm mad! Geez, over an hour and a half at least? I've seen a couple ads all the sudden start working, then quit again. Oh, I'm going to have a word or 2 with them when they get back!

...then nobody says a peep on here, until 2 people start talking at the same time I do! ;-)

Down for me too. Tracking urls as well as members area. Can still get to www.cj.com, but that's it.

Yes, I just noticed that it's back here too.
But, man, they were down for a long time, I have tons of their affiliate links, mainly Ebay on my sites and they get lots of clicks.
I can't stand broken links, and they were all over my site!

I still can't log in in the USA. I logged into Adwords and when clicking my ads there they work. Not really sure what to do?

The payment day (locked day for April) is overdue. Is this a reason?

Logging in seems to be spuratic. Sometimes I can sometimes not. I have noticed the last logged sale was at 7:30am PST. Anyone appear to be up to date?

My last sale was at 8:12 am PST... This would be very abnormal. Anyone else seeing lower than normal results?

Talking about time. I've noticed that the time in my CJ account has changeg from PST (Pacific Standard Time) to PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)since the first week of April 2005. Is this due to the change of daylight saving? Does anyone noticed this?

I don't know about that question, but I pulled about 95% of the CJ ads from my site today.
I send their clients over 10,000 visitors a month. Maybe they will notice that more than my irate email.

P.S. I only say 95% because I'm sure I missed a few.
