What's happening with FoilZone.com?

Been trying to log on for a few days now and the connection times out.

Anyone know what's happening to the site? Pump Me Up isn't sabotaging it, is he?

Lots of ripples in the net since SOPA/PIPA fallout. Depending on where foilzone was hosted, it might be experiencing some collateral damage.

The following is from a WhoIs search of the Foilzone.com website registration information. Near the bottom, there is a status field indicated as "Locked."

Does anyone know what this term means? Is Foilzone in arrears in paying their registration fees? Their domain registration appears to be valid until June of this year.

Per Wikipedia:

REGISTRAR-LOCK is a status code that can be set on an Internet domain name by the sponsoring registrar of the domain name. This is usually done in order to prevent unauthorized, unwanted or accidental changes to the domain name.

When set, the following actions are prohibited by the domain name registry:
Renewal of the domain name is, however, still possible when REGISTRAR-LOCK is set.
