3 of the other forums i occasionally visit whilst i'm busy at work have gone down possibly with a nasty virus today. Both PHBB based. Fingaz crossed it doesn't take this one down too.

Didn't this site go down/ crash yesterday? I couldn't get on at all in the morning - it was saying it had reached it's bandwidth limit or something.

If thats the same message Kitesurfers been seeing, it's not a virus, it's a deliberate targeted ddos attack.

yep , some lil'flesher has got a wood on for a few forums ... you'd think that they wouldnt be allowed pc's in a " droolers academy " but obviously they get them and spend all day pretending to be other people and when it becomes obvious to the clever ones that they are not what they pretend to be ..they start attacking said forum !

Go make wicker baskets instead or make friends with a book of carpet samples ..you know .. give em' something usefull to do innit :wink:

The real annoying thing is that its probably down to some teenage cyclepath looking for attention .." if they spent as much time doing good as they do trying to screw things up ..they'd get all the right kind of attention as often as it was needed .
Although saying all that , never underestimate how cold the competition is getting in the business world !!
