Designtechnika² Has Been Hit Again

I regret to share this bad news with my friends at Aqua-Soft. Once again we have suffered another deliberate attack at DT². Being the last attack was on Dec 1, and the news yesterday that Duckie and Iceman's sites have also been attacked...I have to say that these attacks are becoming a huge and detrimental threat to our customizing community. We need to band together and find a quick and efficient resolve to this terrible problem.

This is very sad indeed my friends. And yes Goku I did reply to your PM...thank you for your help. Kaos also has spoken with Tim and with Duckie trying to share information and stay in touch about this act of sabotage that is affecting all of us.

There were specific IP's added to the root of the host last night...the ones you shared plus one we had which was given to us by our host which Kaos shared with Tim and Duckie. But today all the IP's that attacked us are different. This is just terrible, awful news and you have no idea the sadness I am feeling right now about these incidents. All we have been trying to do is share freely of our work and Mr. Yamaguchi's wonderful free programs...and for certain people to attack us so ruthlessly and viciously in this manner...I just don't understand why this is happening. This is a very sad day indeed :(

Kaos has just informed me that DT² is back up thanks to the help of our host. Now the search continues yet again to find the people responsible for these attacks. Thank you all for allowing me to share this at Aqua-Soft...every one of you is most appreciated, and just knowing you are behind us 100 % though this ordeal sure has made it a lot easier for us to bare these undeserved attacks at DT². Our sincerest thanks to you all.

if it's mulitple IP's it's probobly some ScriptKiddie F**ckin around..

with a D.O.S program..

if that is the case. you would get multiple IP's that have no relation to the

person doing the attack..

How it works

Wish it would be that easy but these were not D.O.S. attacks. These IPs deliberately targeted and downloaded one specific file which was Y'z Dock to the tune of depleting 25 GB of bandwidth in just 12 hours. The IPs were singled out and blocked from the root of the site. But the second attack did the same thing using different IPs, again targeting Mr. Yamaguchi's Y'z Dock zip...this time they were stopped after burning up 10 GB in a few hours. So...all zips have been removed from our server for the time being until the host finalizes the investigation and we feel it safe to continue as we were before these attacks happened. As for DT², the forum is back up and running as it should.

Thanks :D
