Hack Attack Knocks Out Major Pro-War Blogs

The attack is originating "internationally." Hmmmm... wonder who that might be.

Instapundit, Captain's Quarters, Powerline and other blogs hosted by Hosting Matters are all down due to denial-of-service attacks.

I wish they would attack this site. I could use a day off.

Bastards. I haven't been able to access my blog all day. Guess that means I'll just have to post my inane crap here.

Like Crocodile vs. Chainsaw. Who wins?

And I don't remember them questioning the 'facts' of Michael Moore's movies, do you?

Posted by: Slublog on April 28, 2006 11:38 AM

I'm the target, Ace.

Posted by: Aaron's cc: on April 28, 2006 11:38 AM

I wouldn't read too much into the "international" thing. I work at a medium sized datacenter and pretty much all attacks of all forms (DDoS, Spam, etc) originate mostly from international sources. It's usually a combination of poorly secured boxes in eastern europe, asia, and Windows boxes sitting on DSL/Cable modems here in the US.

Michelle Malkin (amazing they missed hers) says that Glenn R. is reporting that it's out of Saudi Arabia...

You could hand the site over to your stable of guest morons for a few days, you know.
Posted by: someone on April 28, 2006 11:52 AM

"stable of guest morons"

Genius.

Posted by: Gabriel Malor on April 28, 2006 11:58 AM

I question their patriotism.

Posted by: Sweetie on April 28, 2006 12:14 PM

Man and www.teenasiananalcumsluts.com is down as well. Now what am I going to read?

A hack attack from Saudi Arabia silences some of the biggest blogs...kind of surprised this didn't rate a post on HotAir.

Posted by: lauraw on April 28, 2006 01:42 PM

No denial of service attacks for me but the past few days I've been getting junk trackbacks like nobody's business.

On Wednesday alone, I received over 1,000 junk trackbacks.

Somebody please send me a real trackback just so that I will know that I am loved....

My money would be on china, assuming it's not local to the USA and routed through international sources. They did more or less declare internet war on the west a few years back.

Posted by: Christopher Taylor on April 28, 2006 03:04 PM

Aaron's cc blog still down.
The Saudi hackers have been making a concerted effort to silence him in particular for some time now.

Posted by: lauraw on April 28, 2006 04:38 PM

HANG THESE ROTTEN HACKERS FROM A TREE

Posted by: spurwing plover on April 28, 2006 05:06 PM

And I don't remember them questioning the 'facts' of Michael Moore's movies, do you?

There were facts in his movies? :-)

Posted by: iamfelix on April 28, 2006 08:17 PM

Ohhh MAN.

The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler is still offline.

Misha's gonna be pissed as a hornet when it comes back.
I'm a-gonna be tuned to that channel, my friends.

Anybody else here find it amusing that the Saudi hackers didn't take down any lefty blogs, hmm?

I guess muslim terrorists know who their friends are.

Aaron vents a little steam HERE.

Posted by: lauraw on April 28, 2006 09:15 PM

You guys also get the feeling that spurwing would be the first at your door holding a pitchfork and a torch if you were harboring a space alien?

Posted by: Bart on April 28, 2006 09:23 PM

No, I think he'd be holding a 'Welcome Home' sign and a bottle of Jose Cuervo.

Posted by: lauraw on April 28, 2006 10:40 PM

I wish they would attack this site. I could use a day off.

I know people who know people... if you know what I mean.

Or at least they know my blog... which is back online.
