Hi everyone,

Wanted to drop a quick line or two. I just put up the All Hallow's Eve Sale.
Lots of deals to choose from, at some horrific savings, if you were our
accountant! That's ok, he won't be looking at the books for a while
anyway.....hehehe....... Sale ends November 1, 2002. But, there may be an
extra bonus on the 31st if you
dare visit that late in the evening......bwahhhh!   Sorry, that wasn't
me.

I think it may actually be a net problem, half the net's down according to the
Aussie view of things as I write this (may be a cable got cut somewhere).

No. One of the largest DDOS attacks ever was in progress. So most of the web
was technically still up, but the DNS servers were swamped.

I have to reply to this..

Keep an eye on http://www.vmyths.com/ whenever a line about massive DDOS

attacks comes up in the press, or whenever you read an article about computer
security, or virus problems on the net...
