Can someone explain why traffic on the net just increased 5 times in the last... oh 4 hours?

Really, really weird... Speed dropped from 59 to 17, and pins jumped from 177ms to 1519 ms.

Is everyone trying to download the last bit of warez before the entire scene gets shut down? The top 3 MP3 channels on EfNet already got canned, and Razor was killed today.

But how would that result in such a change in speed? really interesting...

Check out the stats for Europe and S.America; both went down bigtime at 18:45 along with N.America for 3.5 hours. Could it be a DOS attack, us. gov, or aliens?
