Re: Todays DDOS (site down)

reply to justin
I always thought you can turn the tables on these guys.

A couple of times I ran a small limited FTP for a few forum
friends. To pass about a couple of large files. I only
limited to 2 open connections and not anon. Of course some
jerks, would not follow the 2 rules.

Since this was a while back. And they all were running
windoze boxes. Simple ping-of-death was possible, to knock
off the offender.

I know, you will not get the botmaster. But maybe a few
slaves would wonder why they froze and fix there damn systems.

Maybe I am being to simplistic and assuming some intelligence
of the end-parties.

Missed the excitement, but glad it was fixed by the time I logged on this morning. It is good to know that BBR has such a competent staff to take care of problems like this. Thanks for your hard work Justin.

I will chime in also and say thanks for the hard work Justin. There have been some truly great things to come out of many of the forums here over the years, especially in the security forum, and it looks like someone got a bit pissy and wanted revenge.

Thanks for keeping the site going!

reply to justin
I missed the whole thing oh well.

Running fine here thanks.

I`ve got no problems getting the forum from the UK.
Its running perfectly, I`ve been getting it off and on most of the day.

Keep up the good work justin, glad we`re back.

Way to go

There's no place like home ;)

reply to justin
Way to go Justin! It felt weird not being able to check BBR in the morning before school, now that they blocked it there.

Btw, article at The Register here: »www.theregister.co.uk/2008/03/19···_attack/

I've been kicked out for the last hour (Mele can't get here either by the way, we've been conversing over at Wilders). I'm here via a proxy right now.

I get nothing, zip, ziltch, just a white page trying to get here the normal way.
