Uhhh, I downloaded the new client but it looks like somebody is messing with the blockchain....  It says out of sync and 341329 blocks remaining!

also mine did this - then fixed itself , we  think someone is trying to attack the blockchain ?

It happened again just now... stuck at 341313 remaining.

All - This is a rogue node(s) trying to poison the network.  Nothing we can do about this.  It happens in all currencies when the hash rate is low (and someone actually tries).  If you look in your log files you will see IP
s being banned. 

What they do is mine the blockchain offline, and then try to sync with the network.  Will never work unless they operate 50%+ of the nodes.

Let it keep running, it will clear itself up once the IP is forcibly disconnected.
