DoS? Who knows…?
…and we’re back.
You might have noticed some downtime today, for some reason my site was using 40-50% of my hosts CPU. As that is somewhat crazy I can only image there was some kind of DoS or similar malicious attack against my site and a few others on this host.
I’ll keep you posted if I find out any more information.

DoS attack:
Short for denial-of-service attack, a type of attack on a network that is designed to bring the network to its knees by flooding it with useless traffic. Many DoS attacks, such as the Ping of Death and Teardrop attacks, exploit limitations in the TCP/IP protocols. For all known DoS attacks, there are software fixes that system administrators can install to limit the damage caused by the attacks. But, like viruses, new DoS attacks are constantly being dreamed up by hackers.
