Re: Major connection issues! 6/6/06

Well, it looks like it is slowly coming back together. I bet it was due to some script kiddy's botnet activating on the 6/6/6 date and DDOSing the DNS servers again.

A quick look at the service status page seems to confirm an overload of the DNS servers.

A message to all people new to NTL or who don't have a clue when it comes to PCs:

1) get a virus checker
2) get a firewall
3) update your windows regularly
4) stop clicking on attachments that come from sources you don't know or are not expecting. Britney Spears has never yet blown off a horse - that file in your email tray reporting to be Britney blowing off a horse is not what it says it is.
5) Your paypal account has not been hacked, don't click on that link that says it has
6) Barclays don't need your password - in fact, you haven't got a Barclays bank account.
7) Hot girls are not waiting for you inside!
8) You don't know any Nigerians, so why would they want to give you thirty million dollars?
9) if you can't follow these rules, step away from the PC and read a book.
