Forums down due to DoS attack
November 24th, 2007 by admin
Yesterday, at about 7.30PM EST we were victims of a DoS attack and forums have been down for several hours.
Currently we are investigating the source of the DoS attack and whether a specific forum was targeted. Also we are enabling countermeasures in orther to ensure our services keep online during future similar attacks.
For those of you who do not know what a DoS attack is, here is a link to the Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack
We apologise for the downtime.
