Under Attack (Again)

Referrer spam

Referrer spam count in October logs (click image to see it full-sized)

SOME decent-scale DoS attacks, carried out by hijacked Windows workstations, have returned to the site. This comes after presistent attempts to take down the server, spamming it with URL‘s in the process.

This recent wave of attacks is one which can better be coped with due to experience acquired the last time. Sadly, I suspect that the attackers, whoever they may be, are reading my outcries in the blog and are getting a real kick out of it. Therefore, this will probably be my last post on the topic, however compelling the need to mention it becomes.
