Hi

There where some server problems in the last few days with all sites using the host that Planetcricket.net uses unobtainable. This was due to a Denial of Service attack on the hosts but its all sorted out now!

Odd...I get the same thing.
However, when I click on www.planetcricket.org it seems to work.
Strange...
 
Damn. I hate DOS attacks.
Its been quite easy to zombify Windows PCs and use them for DOS attacks.

Hence, I use Mac OS 99% of the time. What a beauty with Tiger.

Anyways, hope www.planetcricket.org doesn't get attacked and we lose connectivity again.

Well it wasnt Planetcricket.net getting attacked it was the hosts server so all the sites hosted by them went down. I dont think anyone has a vendetta against Planetcricket so they would attack it "personally".
