Yeah guys, you are right. It's very annoying and frustrating keep getting hit by DDoS attacks. As many of you know this issue started to happen at the summer of 2007. Since then we are keep getting hit on a monthly to weekly basis. At that time we deployed Prolexic as an instant and said to be efficient solution for DDoS attacks. Many of you have suggested them if I remember well. At that time they seemed to be an efficient solution for our problems.

By today as many of you have realized they are not as efficient and as bullet-proof as they seemed to be. Unfortunately this is a learning curve what we had to experience by time via the constant attacks.

Also as our host CWIE / Secured Servers has zero solution for DDoS protection, we have to fight on our own with this issue. Many of you guys are operating big server farms, so you are pretty much aware of it what it means to even consider moving a server farm of over 100boxes. (I guess the ISPs are also pretty much aware of this) On top you have zero guarantees when dealing with hosts. We have experiences with many hosting companies from the past and we are pretty much aware of the 'sales guarantees'.

So what will come next? We are investing further hundreds of thousands of dollars into further equipment. The products are under order, we are expecting the shipment soon. Hopefully this will give a permanent solution.

Unfortunately as we are sure that behind the DDoS attacks there are competitors, we have to deal with constant well-planned and sophisticated attacks. Yes, these attacks are more frequent and more well-planned that most of you around here might have ever seen. I can tell you this as a fact based on our discussions with fellow sponsors and their experiences on DDoS.

The reason of the competitors for the attack is what they are achieving now, to harm our reputation and to make us loose affiliates.

We believe that our new investments will have remarkable solution against the DDoS attacks and we also believe that we will get out of this stronger than ever. We designate 2008 to sort out our business insecurities and to massively stabilize our operation. All of you will see a stronger 21sextury Cash coming out in 2008.

Thank you for all loyal affiliates and partners who are still with us and supporting us not only in good times but also right now in bad times!!!
