| Post subject: | Slow Website/DOS Attack |
Just wanted to apologize to everyone for the excruciatingly slow website and message board. WorldWorks games was hit by a Denial of Service attack last week and the hosting provider is still in the process of stabilizing the server. Speeds should slowly return to normal now. |

??? I don't understand why someone would attack WorldWorks. That's just stupid. Some people need to either get a life, or become couch potatoes like the rest of us! ;D Now I can understand why some guy on TechTV was talking about "Hacking back" (basically he wrote a program that allowed him to stop attacks from computers that had been infected by a particular virus, without doing any harm to the infected computer, and most of these DOS attacks come from infected computers, and he was the IT guy for some major company.) |
