You just missed their DNS server expiration.

The company that owns swfchan's domain went out of business. Swfchan must have changed it's DNS
to a different company before you could see it.

Whoops, I completely missed the news of the DNS shutdown. Just by chance I stepped into /f/ now
during a break and spotted this thread. Hm, I still have 5 minutes to migrate before the deadline
here in Sweden apparently... Haha. That's too little time! Especially since I'm busy at the
moment. The new service costs money and I have to investigate my options.
I guess swfchan won't have a DNS for a little while, I really don't have time for this right now.
Boy is my face red. :)
Also, first time posting with tripcode on 4chan.

If you want to access swfchan while the DNS is down you can do it by editing your hosts file.
Go to the following folder:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\
Double-click on the file named "hosts".
The "Open with" dialogue should appear. Select Notepad.
Add the following lines to the end of the file:
88.80.28.8 swfchan.com
88.80.28.8 swfchan.org
88.80.28.8 swfchan.net
88.80.28.8 eye.swfchan.com
88.80.28.8 eye.swfchan.org
88.80.28.8 eye.swfchan.net
88.80.28.8 files1.swfchan.com
88.80.28.8 files1.swfchan.org
88.80.28.8 files1.swfchan.net

(Continued.) Don't worry you won't break anything. If you want to be sure you can make a copy of
the hosts file before you save. Which you should be doing right about now.
Now your computer is independent of any DNS server, you can visit the site as normal.
All you have to do now is remember that you have changed the hosts file because if the site
becomes inaccessible to you in the future it might be because the server has a new IP address
(88.80.28.8 is static for swfchan but I can't guarantee it will never change). If this happens
all you have to do is open the hosts file again and remove the lines you added, then your
computer will look up the server's new IP from the new DNS server that I will get sometime later
this week (hopefully tomorrow if I have the time).

...and now the server suddenly started having its regular connection problem. It's funny that
everything must happen at once, isn't it?
Just thought I'd mention that there's regular connection problems with the server at the moment
too that are unrelated to the DNS problem.
So just to be clear: The hosts solution above should work for the DNS issue, but not right this
minute since there's also problems with the IP 88.80.28.8.

Domain Name = Down.
Server = UP.
swfchan (dot) com/1/1360/?Anon+Party+Hard+3.swf
Just Sayin.
SwfChan is probably down for maintenance and didn't disable all their pages...
