Re: FN-FORUM: Protx Down?

date posted 27th January 2005 21:32

Hi,
Got this from them earlier :-

---------------
I am sorry to report that Protx is currently suffering from a Distributed
Denial of Service attack (DDoS) since approximately 15.30 today.
As such, you and your customers may not be able to access our payment and
reports pages at this time.
As you know, the final part of our long term mitigation service was due to
be installed this evening as part of the scheduled downtime.
In light of the circumstances we have decided to implement the solution
immediately so that we are able to counter the current attack more
effectively. ----------------
