Did We Get Hit?

cgannon64 · Jan 25, 2003

I couldn't get into the site for about 20 minutes. Not even the starting screen. Telefragged's site was down too.

Did we get hit by the 'Snake' virus, or whatever its called? Or was it just me? This is getting really annoying... :mad:

lets hope i can stay on now

Seems to be fine for me.

Yeah was a bit slow on the main page for me for a few mins, but the forum seems fine now.

I noticed between 6am and 7am GMT that the site was slow responding. I could get to the main page, but not the forums. I don't think it was necessarily a 'hit', but I think the virus might of DoS'd the forums because of the volume of traffic.

What is this "Snake" virus about? :confused:

Is it in the news?

I get breaking news from MSNBC, and this is what they sent me:

Traffic slowed across the Internet early Saturday as a quick-spreading, virus-like infection overwhelmed the world's digital pipelines and interfered with Web browsing and e-mail.

Just found an article about it on Yahoo News:
