#UpSiteDown V 1.8 is here.

* You can now toggle on and off the program's site up, site down and error sounds. The hotkey for this is Windows+Shift+Control+A (A for audio).
* The on-command updater has been refactored (again) and should now work as expected.

Since this version rewrites the updater, a manual download is strongly recommended.

#UpSiteDown V 1.7 is out!

* The request timeout, the amount of time the program waits for a reply from a website before calling it down, can now be customised in opts.ini. The default timeout is 15 seconds.
* Outage log entries no longer include the text "Date and time" before the already obvious date and time.
* The update checking process has been condensed down to a single hotkey, Windows + Shift + Control + P.

Thanks to @FreakyFwoof for the on-command updater and outage report suggestions.

#UpSiteDown V 1.6 is out.

* UpSiteDown can now check websites asynchronously, resulting in faster, more efficient monitoring.
* The program will now update the list of monitored websites automatically when you modify the sites.txt file, no more having to restart the program to monitor new sites!

The updater is *still* having issues, so a manual download is recommended.

Yay for #UpSiteDown being a lot faster now due to asynchronous monitoring.

#UpSiteDown V 1.5 is out. This release adds the ability to delete your outage report file; Windows+Shift+Control+E by default. Also, if you try to launch the program when it's already running, it will simply be shut down and restarted.
Manually downloading this version is preferred, as there is a new file which the updater doesn't include for some reason.

#UpSiteDown V 1.4 has arrived. With this release, when a site comes back up, UpSiteDown will now generate an outage report that contains details about the downtime, including the date and time of the outage, the reason the site was reported as down, and the duration of the outage. This file, named outage.txt and stored inside the UpSiteDown program folder, can be accessed at any time with the Windows+Shift+Control+V hotkey by default.
If you're upgrading from V 1.3.5, it is safe to use the on-command updater; Windows+Shift+Control+P by default.

#UpSiteDown V 1.3.5 is out. This release adds a first time setup dialog where you can add a site URL to initialise the program (@FluidEscence inspired this feature), and attempts to fix the updater.

#UpSiteDown V 1.3 is out. This release changes the library which handles keyboard input, fixing an issue where all hotkeys would stop working in certain circumstances, such as when opening the NVDA screen reader menu with NVDA + N. Thanks @FluidEscence for help switching to this library. Note, the on-command updater seems to be broken, so you will have to manually download. Apologies for any inconvenience.

For those waiting for a new release of #UpSiteDown, it will be out as soon as possible. The priority right now is rebuilding and recovering from the FrySQL incident last week.

@seediffusion I have a #RaspberryPi3 here that keeps crashing, still don't know why. It goes down when I least expect it, so I'm using #UpSiteDown to keep an eye on it. As it runs #PiHole, it's kind of good to know when it dies so I can fix it.
Thank you for making such a useful thing.
