The internet’s tubes are clogged

Apparently there has been a big problem all over the internet in the past day with anyone using Internet Explorer trying to access blogs or sites that have Sitemeter for tracking visits.
I’m hoping that’s a quickly resolved problem that won’t require me to uninstall Sitemeter.
Obviously, the other easy fix is for everyone to switch to a decent browser, but you may not even be able to read this to know you need to switch.
So what’s the scoop? Anyone out there with IE able to read this? Has the problem been fixed?
Update: Apparently the problem has been fixed.
