Title: Denial of Service Attack on the board?
Post by: GeeP on March 18, 2008, 07:38:55 PM
Firefox just went haywire on my machine loading and reloading the board about 6 times a second.  This happend the last time we had a DOS attack.

Specifically, it happened while reloading a page.  Anybody else having this problem?

Nope.

I'm using firefox 2.0.0.12 and Win98.

Could it be your computer has a few nasties lurking on it?  :dunno_white:

I scanned everything and came up clean.  Hmm...

Beginnerbikers.org got trashed a few weeks ago.  They deleted the database, among other things.  We're about 75% back on line now, only lost a few days worth of post to the backup.

I guess I'm a bit sensitive.   :mad:
