right - just been on a bbs that says it has been closed down by a 3rd party.

here is one of the mirror sites which will start the load (which is more than suprnova.org will allow ) - but every single one comes back with bad tracker.

the whole thing could be bwokenised - gutted

try clearing your temporary internet files and include all offline content. This worked for me.

not just new stuff - i only use http://search.suprnova.org as THE link rather than going to the home page to start with.

and the other link above http://83.149.90.123/www/list_news.html loads, but get "no known mirror" on every torrent - doh!

Suprnova is working fine if suprnova is down the trackers will work as suprnova dont have there own tracker and all the torrents on there use public trackers. Suprnovas has around 3 or 4 mirrors at a time so if one gets shut down there's still back ups

If you have recently installed SP2 u need to switch off your windows firewall or configure it to allow the ports that the client/trackers use or u wont connect to more than 1 torrent at a time if your lucky!!

Looks like its down for good. They site has the following message up:

'Good-bye!
Greetings everybody, As you have probably noticed, we have often had downtimes. This was because it was so hard to keep this site up! But now we are sorry to inform you all, that SuprNova is closing down for good in the way that we all know it. We do not know if SuprNova is going to return, but it is certainly not going to be hosting any more torrent links. We are very sorry for this, but there was no other way, we have tried everything. Thank you all that helped us, by donating mirrors or something else, by uploading and seeding files, by helping people out on IRC and on forum, by spreading the word about SuprNova.org. It is a sad day for all of us! Please visit SuprNova.org every once in a while to get the latest news on what is happening and if there is anything new to report on. As we wish to maintain the nice community that we created, we are keeping the forums and irc servers open. Thank you all and Goodbye! sloncek & the rest of the SuprNova Team
the Staff'

Looks like thats it then
