I just had the same thing a few hours ago and fix it.


The DNS from my ISP was not finding the hosting site. (update.decaldev.com if I remember correctly)


I manually changed my DNS to a third party one I have been using for over 10 years (http://www.opendns.com/ ).

(Use the DNS IPs down in the lower right hand corner of that link ..)


After that, I was able to get my laptop updated with no problems. My belief is that they were up all the time, and we had computers just checking in the wrong locations.

Tried it, but that still didn't work. Looks like the site is still down as well=(

The company that was hosting our DNS nameservers seems to have gone under. Messages were left with Mekle but there's nothing I can do about it myself.


You can update by setting your update url to decal.limitengineering.net or www.virindi.net

They both work fine, I don't know what the heck ya'll are doing.


You open Decal, click the Options button, click Change down near the bottom and put in either

http://decal.limitengineering.net


or


http://www.virindi.net


And click OK.


It works fine.
