What's up with the website/forum?

Post by jurchiks »

I get 403 access denied when I try to open multiple tabs (not always, but frequently). This only started a couple of days ago.
If you have problems, FIRST TRY SOLVING THEM YOURSELF, and if you get errors, TRY TO ANALYZE THEM, and ONLY if you can't help it, THEN ask here.
Otherwise you will never learn anything if all you do is copy-paste!
Discussion breeds innovation.

It expended the weekend under heavy DDOS, and some stuff is not working totally fine at the moment.

Will be fixed soon, be patient :wink:

We have been under DDoS since past weekend (webserver caput!!!) and now the box is running under some heavy traffic control in order to block most of the attack, no multi-tasking on the forum right now is heavily restricted and limited.

We are wondering about it too, funny thing is that it started just the same day GoD was released :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

No real hacker uses DoS, only the noob wannabe kind. They don't know or don't want to know other ways, just have some servers with good connection.

BTW just to let you know that we are still under DDoS, but in a lesser degree, seems like having a botnet messing around too long is kinda expensive :twisted:

Sorry for posting on an innactive for 4 months topic but
I was always wondering about it so let me ask you.
Isn't there any way to find the IP Address that Attacks you via DDoS ?

Hi!
Only your ISP knows what route it comes from, but they will never know the real IP addresses of attackers, since you can "spoof" it in every packet just like in the syn packet. Attackers' favorite instrument is the syn flood. And there is no way of defense, only to ask the ISP to deny the given IP area. However if you have a lot of money, you can try out some hardware flood protectors that work like a proxy, but you will only have effect, if you ask it from the ISP. :)
