Old Woodworking Machines web site

Does anyone know what has happened to the "Old Woodworking Machines" web
site http://www.oldwwmachines.com/ ?

I'm trying to look up some parts for an old bandsaw and keep getting a "The
page cannot be displayed" message.

Is it still active?

Thanks.

Try http://www.owwm.com
The correct address usually works better :-)

You do know that IE5 has been put on "End of life" for support, right? Meaning,
no bug fixes, no security patches, nothing. Netscape 3 is also very old, and
at a minimum you'll be unable to connect to any https:// website that is using
modern acceptably high encryption.

Well...as much as I dislike Microsoft (which is a LOT), criticizing them that
a browser they're saying "It's too old, don't use it anymore" doesn't work
properly is a bit unfair. One could argue that it was crap when it was brand
new as well.

Have you tried Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org ? Nice fast browser,
has popup blocking built in, supports current encryption and certificates,
and isn't from Microsoft. Oh, and it's free and doesn't suck.
