DDOS attacks supposed to pick back up Today? (monday)

I know it is self-propagating, but isn't a fix a fix? Unless it is operating on a different port how can it "pick back up"?

Just wondering if this is true or not...

From the graphs it does appear that it is picking back up. Take a look for yourself.

There were two pretty good spikes today. It looks as if it is dieing off again. I'm not positive that can be attributed to the DDOS but it appears to be the most likely candiddate to me.

Lone hacker, or terrorist plot? I heard on CNN the FBI was looking into this . . . did they investigate Code Red?

Terrorist plot?

Of course the feds are on it.. do you think your local PD has the capabilities to deal with this? The feds always deal with large scale hacking, attacks, etc, and this is the biggest hit yet.

Thanks for the link, etech.
