    They must have had no lives to even bother getting enough bandwidth to launch such an attack.

    That much bandwidth would have come from a major provider, probably a competitor of rackshack.

    The Lag is from the Linux Slapper Worm. It just hit 1 hour ago.

    And your proof of this is...??? Slapper has been running for 10+ days now. There is no indication that it chose tonight to ramp up and take out Rackshack, or is there

    No, it didn't choose it, I know its been running for days but it picked up steam. There are several DC's that have gone down, not just rackshack.

    Let's hope the Slapper worm doesn't make people want to use Microsoft products instead. When/if it picks up media attention, it could be devastating to the server market.

    Do you know which DC's, as we have not seen any signs of this on many of the major ones. Just trying to ascertain if the slapper is really causing any Internet wide problems, as our limited scope says it is not.

    Well hasn't made the nightly news yet so guess its not that big. John, I read those articles though. I know that it took down Rackshack for 2 hours. You can look at their MRTG. According to the Forum the worm infected about 20 servers.
