From Problems page at Project Euler...
UPDATE (Tue 15 Apr 08)
Members will be pleased to see a return of the Country and Language searching. Just click on the language name to see which members use that language or click a flag and see which members come from that country. However, I must warn that I will need to carefully monitor the extra load this puts on the server, but I am hopeful that the caching system I have written will manage (currently set to a one hour update).

It's nice to see the site regaining the old features, and the new layout is nice too!

I noticed a very small bug though: If you go to the scores page, and then visit a country you haven't visited before, the text "Cache update" is displayed as a negative random-like value. For example if I visit "Scores", then visit Ukraine, I see "Cache update: -333 minutes". If I reload the page, I see "Cache update: 59 minutes".

Yup, it's great to have all these features back. The pdf articles are a great addition imho, I take it you do know about the closed form solutions for problem 1 and 2 ? :D

One thing, could you also restore the possibility to put some text on your profile?

Thanks for pointing that out, Bjorn. I have no idea where those weird values were coming from, but I've fixed it.
