That is a quote from the story... So supposedly some big site had their servers brought down to their knees by ONE IP address attempting to log in and fail? Does anybody ever proof read or use common sense with these stories? This is almost as factual as a Bill OReilly story.

I *think* they meant that the activity in the nats admin account was slowing down the server.
