Great to find you guys back up and running! I was missing one of my favorite diversions. Too bad we can't do as they used to do in the South: take the bad guy a few miles out from town, tie him to a tree, and explain things to him.

I'm glad to see you all are back . I've been jonesing bad for my CC fix. Seriously, 95% of what I know about my computers security is because of this site and the wonderful people here who give their time and expertise. You are in my thoughts. I will do what I can to help. innerpeace _________________ Being sane is enough to drive anyone crazy.

This is too reminiscent of the Blue Frog/Security incident. Hopefully, the similarity ends as of right now! Glad you're up and running again, and hope you continue.

The DDos attack is very similar to the Bluefrog DDos attack. I am glad to see you are up and running again, and I hope you continue. I think Castlecops do a fantastic job against hackers, spammers and cyber criminals. Happy 5-Year Anniversary CastleCops! Enter our Contest 2007 in celebration and recognition of volunteerism. Spread the word!

I am experiencing a general site slowdown. Why do I have this feeling that we're not out of the woods yet? Hans _________________ Websplasher website design. Design with a splash.

Probably because we've been through this before, and Paul mentioned we aren't out of the woods yet. Apparently the criminal doesn't want all this security software released. I wonder if Paul can get the donors to donate more, not that I'm one that wants to piss Leo off. I'd be happy just ruining his business. Smile
