Scripts are run on a seperate ZTNet server, so static html files are still accessible.

Yes, but only MARP is down afaik.. other scripts on ztnet are running fine.. usually if it blows it takes the whole thing with it, mame.net forums etc.

I
should have said that
MARP scripts were run on a seperate server.
There has been a problem with hung scripts in the past, but these usually only stop database related scripts from working. Although I do see that the news script (
http://marp.retrogames.com/news.cgi) is still working.
I have noticed that Zwaxy had logged on to the server at some point this morning, so I presume that he is aware of the problem too. It's a wonder ZTNet hasn't noticed yet, either.

I'm just wondering can everybody else connect normally to MARP? I know I can't. I have also trouble connecting to mame.net, mameworld.net, retrogames.com, etc.

Try a different ISP or going through babelfish?
Might be a DNS problem with your provider.

I'll try that.
or going through babelfish?
What do you mean by this? Can you give any instructions?

Go to:
http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr
type
http://marp.retrogames.com
in the "translate this webpage" box.
Choose to translate Japanese to English. Since it won't find any Japanese on the site, it will keep the english
almost intact. If babelfish (or any other proxy) can hit it, the problem is probably with your DNS .
Also: try adding the line:
to your hostfile. If you are Win9x it is at:
c:\windows\hosts
If XP:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Thanks. I can connect through babelfish. I'll contact my ISP and ask them what's going on.

Didn't help.

Again? MARP is unavailable now.

Fixed.
For whatever reason, the pre-compiled Python scripts become incompatible and unable to run. It's fixed by simply deleting them, forcing the system to re-compile them the next time they are run. This is something that might occur when Python is updated, but it's not something that should happen as often as it does.
