not sure what happened.
i checked for updates once on the update service, it said there were no updates, 2 days later all this crap started happening.
sometimes it goes blue, red or green.

well, as mentioend before a third party solution would fix it. totalmultiserver is pretty good for such an accident, but u need to have credit there to use it.
