    Credit Card Processing Company Authorize.net Knocked Offline

    Illustrating the continued fragility of the modern Internet, threads in both the Zen Cart and Web Hosting Talk forums indicate that one of the country's largest credit card authorization networks has gone completely offline. According to several posters, a "perfect storm" was created by the combination of a data center fire and the July 4 weekend holiday, resulting the company going completely dark for more than five hours and counting. The company's phone lines and this Authorize.net website remains offline as of this writing. If your weekend beer purchase didn't go through, now you know why....

                              very unfortunate what is happening to authorize.net, we have transaction servers in 4 different locations around the world to greatly reduce the chances of something like this occurring to ccbill... its regrettable that not many processors have similar redundencies
                              If you need a good company for check writing services, then check out checkissuing, and for webhosting, check out Phoenix NAP
