Was Sythe.org down?

[Lick My Milk]

umm well i actually dont know how to get on the irc thats y im never on

 

Someone wants sythe.org down very badly.

Distributed Http flood attacks
DDoS attacks
Distributed connection flood attacks

All at once. And the people at my host's datacenter just turned the site off and pointed the domain at 1.1.1.1 without asking me.

I have spent the whole day writing scripts to monitor and deal with the attacks. So far 700 IPs have been null routed (banned.)

My guess is that the botnet is several times this size, and as the day progresses more bots will come online. So I have left the scripts running to monitor the server.

If many bots come on at once they can overwhelm it and it will go offline for 10 minutes or so until the scripts can sort it out and settle everything back down.

Hopefully the attackers will just get bored and leave us alone eventually. But they have been doing this on and off for months now.

I wonder why someone want's this site down so badly. Infecting all those computers is serious work.

Everyone has to turn 10 eventually. Once people grow up they'll stop...

I hope that you are right SMR, it is getting really annoying that the server is always down.

 

[Tri-Angel]

I know, I couldn't get on at all for the past couple of days

 

[Expulsion]

I just got on, and it worked! Then it stopped working for 1 minute. Then it worked!

Yeah some times It takes like 2mins to load a page and then other times it takes 2secs O well.

 

[Tempest Lord]

Most times when I go to Sythe, I always get the "This Page Cannot Be Displayed" error.
