    I see them. Looks like someone else is having the same problem right now. Any ideas?

    I see them.. have you tried revalidating your account? Might have been as simple as a network issue and couldn't get the page.

    It had been validating and stopped about 3 days ago, I figured the same and have been waiting and trying to revalidate and just tried now. Still nothing :(

    Your server is doing some cloaking based on user agent. Specifically for no user agent, it's giving a 404 page not found error. I confirmed this myself and there is a difference if you have a user agent v.s not having one.

    The site is showing 404 to no useragent to counter screen scrapers. Is there a useragent or IP block I can open it to or do I have to open it to no useragent?

    You could open it for validate.digitalpoint.com (IP address, not user agent).
