As of right now, MD's oil site is down with a too many connections error. And Eyes and S_D's site has been down since last night because of too many connections.

What this is starting to look like is a DOS attack. Especially since MD's site does not use the bug laden SMF system.

That being said, I am monitoring incoming traffic to my sites and will let everyone know on Facebook and through word of mouth should I feel we are being targeted.

I almost put this in the Tin section but this is coincidental enough to warrant a notice to everyone. If we find that this is the case we can deny access right at the router level to offending IP ranges. We should be fine.

If it is pure (though weird) coincidence then nothing will come of it here anyway.

Just an FYI.
