    Default Has something happened to Japan-Tool?

    Hi! Has something happened at So's site: Account Suspended Or do I have a browser problem? I get a message "Account Suspended". I've cleared my browser cach, etc. with no effect.

    Could someone please try again? I'm surfing from the States. Last night it kind of worked but today the site is hijacked. This morning in standard browser mode both Firefox and Chrome warn of a malicious site. Can only reach the site in "incognito mode". Site has same address but a page with buttons for "Hand Tools On Sale", "Wholesale Dewalt Tools" and more. Roll-over shows redirection to freeresultsguide.com.

    Thanks. I understand. At that time So was announcing that he would not accept new orders. His site was still "open" for browsing. This is something different.

    I was working on my web site yesterday and found the link to his site said the site was shut down basicly.
    Different message there today. Have to see if I can find his phone number and give him a call.

    I just logged on. Japan Tool site still works fine for me. I have not had any trouble.

    Something very strange is going. We need to consult a twelve year old!

    Works for me.
    You're not missing much, anyway. There isn't any new stock on there since the Fujihiro Kiridashi's posted back in November.

    Thanks everyone for checking. It looks like whatever happened to the site has been resolved and the site is working again.
