BT down the pan
 
How many members were affected by BT systems crash yesterday? The problem struck at around 11 am saturday morning and was still not allowing connection well into the evening. BT helpline announcements blamed it on a wave of viruses and worms over the past few days and helpfully offered a website address where you could look for further information and help. Searching the web for news of the event this morning I was struck by how frequent an occurance this sort of systems failure is.

Apparently Morrisons in Blackpool could not operate their tills because of it, can you imagine the chaos?
