    121.9.221.189
    122.200.82.173
    122.224.171.90
    122.234.140.73
    122.246.35.161
    122.71.131.250
    123.117.100.60
    123.130.112.17
    123.203.22.65
    123.215.198.131
    123.215.198.132
    123.234.212.39
    123.234.76.35
    123.235.1.147
    123.235.1.163
    123.235.244.19
    123.54.120.241
    124.128.62.162
    124.129.186.35
    124.164.247.43
    124.207.102.94
    124.53.159.169
    124.82.221.194

    BotNets - they gather up unsecured PCs (via malware or viruses) and run the their processes from there. They pay nothing.

    BotNets is an army of computers who are command by one person/group.

    It's a type of virus that spreads and does commands the initial leader tells it to do. Most of the times through IRC.

    They will be caught and be fined/prison..

    Well there are loads of ways, but the usual way is they infect loads of PCs and then use all the infected PCs to launch a DDOS attack.

    That said I've once heard of an attack which was done by using a bug in a Bittorrent tracker and redirecting all the traffic onto the server (Or something like that)

    Why would proxies be sending dumps of data? Load of rubbish.

    Once again a load of rubbish, botnet owners get jail or major probation time.

    It wasn't an attack it was an example of how someone could use BT trackers for an attack however it didn't work correctly.

    Facts are essential in this area, Don't let people mis-inform you.


    DDOS - Distribuited Denial of Service Attack.

    Zombies/Bots/Trojans which are on insecure computers all around the world, botnet owners sell ddos services to people who want to take down a competitor.

    Google is your best friend.

    In discussion about DDOS at the end you quoted Google. Can google help against DDOS or you mentioned Google just for nothing?

    I recommended google, as its the biggest search engine on the internet and allows the average human to find EXACTLY what they are looking for. E.g more details on DDOS.

    :)
