SpywareInfo, TomCoyote.org and merijn.org disappeared last week. This is due to a colossal, ongoing distributed denial of service attack. Several thousand trojaned PCs are throwing millions of HTTP GET requests at our server. The attacker is very determined to keep these sites off the net. Every time we filter out the attack, thousand of new machines join in. For now, the server is firewalled and all traffic is being null routed.
