Message from our host

Posted by Guessedworker on Tuesday, 20 June 2006 16:28.

E-mail to this blog received today from Matt Heaton of our hosting company.

Dear Bluehost.com Customer,

Today we experienced several MAJOR distributed denial of service attacks against our network. We regret that you experienced some downtime today. We have worked diligently today to further protect our network from these types of attacks. The attack today came from MANY different computers at the same time. This makes it difficult to block and resolve the issue.

Please know that we are working as hard and efficiently as we can to make sure interruptions are brief and rare.

We add our apologies for any connection difficulties you may have experienced over the last 24 hours or so.

One of the conclusions: MR is feared by its enemies.

Sadly, not necessarily.  There appears to be another outbreak of this rubbish at present —mostly the fault of the ghastly tech sector being bent as pretzels, overpaid and unable to design their way out of a paper bag.

The question is were other bluehost customers similarly impacted by this?  If yes, it is unlikely to have been a specific attack vs. MR, unless to shit down MR the entire bluehost system was attacked.  Not likely.

Related - I’m wondering if others are having trouble today accessing Yahoo mail, Yahoo groups, etc?

That is…
“shut down”, not what I wrote

Probably not a ‘freudian slip’, rather the proximity of the I and U keys on the keyboard.

Yahood, the Bluehost mail was a circular.  So I am inclined to agree with you.  The geeks who operate these fleets of attack-dogs from third party computers are invariably cyber-vandals doing it for fun.

In any case, it behoves us not to get too carried away with conspiracy theories, though discounting them entirely is perhaps also not wise.

I just tried to start a new topic but it doesn’t shown up. The ‘preview’ in the control box didn’t work either.

Oops!
