This is really pissing me off... Several times now I have typed up a new post or a reply only to get a DB error or timeout error and lose all that I typed. This sucks
What makes you so sure there not helping, monitoring, looking into it? Any "successful" DDoS attack against sites the size of Yahoo or Facebook would most likely be done by a group that new how to make it as hard as possible to get caught. However, even they get caught from time to time. Your right though, if it came from a different country, it makes it hard. :| Bummer. Couldn't you have said the attack was by a group in an attempt to cause you severe financial harm and claimed it as cyberterrorism? Knowing where the guy lives is a bit of a bummer too... the temptation to "fix" the problem myself usually gets the better of me. Cheers James
Well, blocking most of it, but they are hopping around on a zillion different proxies, so some stuff still getting through. But I'm just reflecting the DDoS attack back to his site. So he essentially took down his own site.
I was wonder why the site was so slow and was having so many problems. God people are dumb DDosing websites. Oh well, kudos to Shawn for the counter attack lol
Although DP's a bit slow ATM, at least it is loading now. I guess his setup is not that robust.. won't even respond. Cheers James
