 |
|
Hello all,
AbyssUnderground is offline at the moment because of a script kiddie DOS attack. They didnt take the site down (I did) but they were sucking a lot of my bandwidth so I had to shut down the VHOST until the attack has subsided.
Ive contacted the attackers ISP (Bellsouth) in the hope that they will do something about it.
The e-mail I sent went as following:
| Code: | "Hello,
Id like to report an unprovoked DOS attack on my website www.abyssunderground.co.uk from one of your customers ( adsl-153-95-97.lft.bellsouth.net ) with IP address 70.153.95.97. This attack started at 19:27 GMT on 6th Feb 2007 and is ongoing.
Could you please explain what you will do under the current circumstances.
Thankyou,
Andrew Whyman
AbyssUnderground.co.uk Administrator"

I should note that the user has an Abyss server running on their IP but it just seems to be a counter. Weird.
I hope to have the site back online ASAP.
