Hello Paul and KyferEz,
For the ddos attacks on thecarpcstore.com, is it the Storm Worm Botnet (Kuvayev Botnet), the nightmare botnet (from Steve Lindford Spamhaus.org)?
http://www.spamnation.info/blog/archives/2007/09/419eater_ddosd.html#more
And I think Spamhaus was under ddos attacks the last days.
Thanks Paul for your wonderfull work against spammers and phishers.
Best Regards,
Roberto78

Does not appear to be the Storm Worm...
The attack actually stopped for a few days, but as soon as I got the forums back online the attack started again.
If you are a trusted member, make sure to check the email you used on our forums!!! (Most have checked in, but a few have not, and a few do not have working email addresses).

Let's cross our fingers... 
By the way, can anybody put IMPERATOR in the download section of CastleCops?

It wouldn't be a bad idea for members of KS forums to PM KyferEz on this forum to make sure he has correct contact info on you.

Our website may be out, but our members are still hard at work!
Many successfully removed spammed sites today! And some new tricks coming.

I noticed that the site was kinda up last week briefly (displaying a PHPBB error of some sort), is the attack still on or is there any signs of it coming up for air anytime soon? I miss the distinctive flavour and haven't found a good replacement yet - best wishes! The download section didn't seem to have the KS Refi or Great Savings Removerator in last time I checked and they both pretty much still work fine with some tweaking (albeit on the now renamed as 'Mortgage - Infinity sites) The removerator in particular has been running for me since it was launched six weeks ago at two or three removes a second for sixteen or so hours a day, so go and puzzle out why some of these removes lists are now in the hundreds of Mb.

You haven't checked the email address you registered on the forums with...

I had changed the forum E-mail address to one I use for spamtrapping and other disreputable contacts starting with 'stickyourspamupyourass', oddly enough the one you sent was the only non spam in the spam trap and I had missed it, I then forwarded it to another account where it got caught in the same way - very strange. All sorted now though so thanks for your heads up and glad to see you back.
