I tried their IP (217.65.128.21) too, no go.

Received a time-out error too.

I would just try back every so often.

They're doing some scheduled maintenance. Check back again in an hour, and things should be going again.

It looks like things are working again, but I did receive this by email...

Message:
At approximately 10:30 AM CDT, share-it!'s e-commerce system came under a
Distributed Denial of Service Attack (DDOS). As part of this coordinated
attack, more than 100 IP addresses are being directed at share-it!
servers and preventing them from handling regular traffic and taking
online orders.

We are in the process of working with upstream Internet providers to
identify and block the suspicious IP addresses.

We understand the challenges that this kind of disruption in your
Internet service presents and are doing everything that we can to expedite
a solution.

We believe we can resolve this issue and restore your service within the
next several hours.

In the meantime, please stand by and we will notify you when this issue
is resolved.
