Hey Shap...

I just got the Post Mortem from my staff and you are right, everything seems to be back on track now. I am sure that our people will get together and try to find out exactly who is responsible for this and hopefully we can do something about it. With that said, however, all too often the people with the power to do something could care less if a porn site gets attacked. Sad but true.

I can assure you that the culprits were very good at what they do. Prior to today the largest DDOS attack that we fought was about 2Gbps...todays was more than 6Gbps....that much incoming bandwidth would bring most hosting companies completely to their knees....but most NatNet customers will not even know there was an issue. It is what you pay us for ;)

I am glad that the fallout was brief and hopefully it wont happen again. (crossing fingers)

As always, thanks for your trust and confidence. I am here if you need me.
