            Still down for me... not good.

            Also didn't they launch that asian site a little while ago... dirtyorientals.com? What happened to that one? It started returning 403's about 24 hours after its launch.

            EDIT: sorry, old thread I see.. anyway, they're down for me again.

                                          I'm here, I was just sleeping

                                          I copy paste the latest announcement from 21sexturycash.com:

                                          05/31 - Frontend is under massive DDoS attack
                                          Dear partners,
                                          unfortunately we have some problems with our NATS frontend due to a massive DDoS attack.
                                          We're working hard on it and it'll be resolved soon.
                                          When NATS frontend is not accessible, NATS is not able to track clicks and it is not possible to sign up for our sites.
                                          Sorry for the inconveniences this may caused and thank you for your patience.

                                          We'll compensate everyone shortly for the last 2 days' missing incomes.

                                            A DDoS can be a major pain, agreed. And still going on, so it seems. Note that affiliates can't read the news on the website while it's under attack. If you sent out mails and I missed it, my bad, but if not: you should do some mailing.

                                            What happened to dirtyorientals ?

                                                  How are DDoSes handled ? Load balancing and huge pipes only ? Or are the zombies weeded out and blocked ?

                                                            Hi Guys,

                                                            Gero from 21sextury. The issue right now is, that we fix one type of attack, then new type of attacks are coming. It started with a zombie-like DDOS against the front ends, we fixed that, then we faced an another attack against the load balancers. We fixed that as well.

                                                            Lately the attackers are going after our NATS/join/singup page. So they try to block only the sign up processes. Right now our admins are working on fixing this problem.

                                                            I don't know if we ever did against anybody to give them a reason for hating us this bad. We are not being such an agressive and big program what would harm somebody's business. That's for sure that the people who are coming after us must have some kind of experience how affiliate programs / NATS work.

                                                            We sorry for these problems, this is a major pain in th *ss for everybody. Once we are back up and operate safely, we will find the way to compensate our affiliates for their losses.

                                                            Gero

                                                                Just a little follow up. It seems almost sure that the attackers are from the industry. Because they use NATS specific codes for the attacks. So it can be anybody who used NATS before, who knows how NATS works from the code side.

                                                                After we could defend the attack against the join form they went against the NATS login form. We could stop them for now. We are wondering what's coming next.

All it takes to get a hold of a NATS copy is the intrusion of a server running it. Or am I wrong ? Then, if needed, some reversing and bada-bing.

                                                                  Maybe it's worth documenting the measures taken against the different attacks. I'm sure many folks would be interested.

That intrusion happened with an admin level password/username what you could dump out if you knew the code. And we caught the people there who did this intrusion. Former employees of our company who runs now their own affiliate program on NATS. So we will see what happenes, right now it's silence and things working.

                                                                      Previously these people could get into only the admin area of nats, which is software level access. Not hardware level.

                                                                      The hardware level access to the boxes are only by our hosting company Cavecreek and 2 of our admins. Our admins also only from our office.

                                                                      NATS is a week side of our business, all the time we get attacks from there.

Once we are over with this whole issue, and poor guys can sleep a bit we will put it online. They slept total 10hrs per person in the past 4 days.

                                                                        Anyways are you interested only in the NATS specific attacks or the whole story? It's a well developed attack. Included a wide range of everything what you can imagine. They go step by step on all possible attack options.

                                                                                The problem with this attack - what the hackers don't consider - is that they make problems to people who are totally innocent on an issue like this. The hacker won't see any financial benefit from this whole thing I'm sure. They just destroy lives and cause problems to nice and total innocent people.

                                                                                For example one of our admins just had a newborn baby. And instead of being at home, helping his wife, spending his time with his family he was away from his beloved ones for 4-5 days so far because of this problem on 10hrs of total sleep. And to all of the other everyday people at our company, same thing.

                                                                                So all in all this is one big issue I don't understand about these hackers. How would they feel if this would happen to their family? Maybe I'm too naive.

                                                                                              That sucks but this seems to be your only choice.

So the affiliate programs are up and running. Now we started to move all of our websites under this protection umbrella. But it will take a couple of days to finish the migration of all the websites. Hopefully no more than 2 days! After that, everything will be ok as it was before!
