There's no hidden service directory available any more for this service.

Long time ago I wrote a small tool to check for hidden services. It consists 
of a shell script an a C program. Compile the program and then run the shell 
script with the .onion-URL as a parameter.

Find the souces below.

rm "$HPID" >/dev/null 2>&1

if [ ! -f "$HPID" ] ; then
   echo "could download \"$HPID\" from directory \"$TDIR\""
   exit 1
