For at least 13hrs yesterday, and 4hrs the day before, I was unable to log onto our site. Register.com (our domain register) was attacked.

http://www.theinquirer.net/inq...m-suffers-dos-attack

A DOS attack is a slick way of saying "Denial Of Service". They basically were bombarded with excessive hits at their servers.

If you tried this number. http://63.251.8.35/ you would have gotten us because that would have bypassed the Register.com servers.

I was in the middle of posting picture when the system went down. Sorry to T&T&B as those photos would have been up yesterday.

Hi Bill
I did mention to you the other day, perhaps on the 1st, that I had problems getting on site. I kept getting a "blank page" and then after that I got a "504" error, whatever that is. I logged off, and then logged out, turned the computer back on, and then was back in business. Have no idea what all that was, but finally got back on my favorite site www.barthmobile.com. Smiler

I received an email from register.com
quote:
Earlier today we communicated to you we were experiencing intermittent
service disruptions as a result of a distributed denial of service
(DDoS) attack – an intentionally malicious flooding of our systems
from various points across the internet.

We want to update you on where things stand.

Services have been restored for most of our customers including hosting
and email. However for some of our customers, services are not fully
restored. We know this is unacceptable.

We are using all available means to restore services to every one of
our customers and halt this criminal attack on our business and our
customers’ business. We are working round the clock to make that happen.

We are committed to updating you in as timely manner as possible,
please check your inbox or our website for additional updates.

Thank you for your patience.

All I have to say is it's nice that after 2 and a half days they finally sent me something. I've had bounced back emails. If someone is waiting for me to respond to a post or email from the 1st-3rd please resend it.

I decided to go to their website. Here is what it says

Service Notice

For the past three days Register.com has been experiencing intermittent service disruptions as a result of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack – an intentionally malicious flooding of our systems from various points across the internet. We know the disruption of business this has caused our customers is unacceptable, and we are working round the clock to combat it. (For more information about DDoS attacks, please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D...l-of-service_attack.)

While we are still under attack, our counter-measures are currently minimizing the disruption to your services. We are using all available means to halt this criminal attack on our business and our customers’ business.

We are committed to updating you in as timely manner as possible, please continue to check back here for additional updates or go to http://www.twitter.com/Register_com.

I guess they're bracing for another attack
quote:
As we previously communicated, Register.com has been experiencing intermittent
service disruptions as a result of a distributed denial of service (DDoS)
attack.

We want to update you on where things stand.

As of now, all web services are operational. If you are experiencing any
issues please call 1-888-734-4783 We have support teams standing by to respond
immediately.

Please note we are not discounting the possibility of an escalated DDoS attack.

We are taking every possible precaution to protect our infrastructure and our
customers. In response we have:

- Deployed counter-measures to mitigate the attack and added capacity across the
company’s network
- Setup special channels with major ISPs to re-enable customers’ services
- Isolated the profile of the attack through forensic data analysis
- Engaged the FBI and The Department of Homeland Security

We promise to update you if there is any change to the situation.

Throughout this attack we have received incredible support from our customers
and want to thank you for your understanding and continued loyalty. We
recognize
these attacks create significant hardships for our customers and will continue
to
work to maintain and earn your trust.
