Kindred Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Just and FYI, It's off topic I know. If the "mods" want to remove it, no prob. Wanted to share some insight. ISP's all over the world might be affected, users might experience slow browsing and such... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2002/12/14/ddos_attack_really_really_tested/ Cheers
Psycho_909nl Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 but it happend in 2003 thats 4 years ago !!! i suppose we wouldn't notice anything now ???? read the third line of the article Published Saturday 14th December 2002 00:45 GMT also second paragraph UltraDNS Corp, which provides DNS services for the likes of oracle.com and top-level domains including .info and, from January 1 2003 .org, was hit by a DDoS attack unprecedented in its scale.
Kindred Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 but it happend in 2003 thats 4 years ago !!! i suppose we wouldn't notice anything now ???? read the third line of the article also second paragraph True, but the fact remains, that there are bots out there attacking the root servers. No "real" impact thus far. Still is an interesting article though. Cheers
Ironhand Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 but it happend in 2003 thats 4 years ago !!! i suppose we wouldn't notice anything now ????.. Actually, these servers are presently under attack--or were several hours ago. It began last night. Far less disruptive this time because of changes made as a result of the 2003 attack.

Force_Feedback Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Yaaay, then what? Or are we going to rant about 'cyberterrorism' economic impacts of attacks and all the other cliche doomsday thinking? I'd say say nothing, then those losers won't have nothing to brag about on their IRC channels or whatever they use. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
