Been struggling with our own domains all morning being down, up, down, up, down. The entire hosting company is down, which to me, caused a great deal of concern. Found a thread that said there is a massive attack on the internet infrastructure today and it's causing a lot of problems for a lot of hosting companies.

Someone posted this link, which I thought was pretty cool for a site, but not something I was happy to see.....67% above average number of attacks going on today.

Click on the "attacks" box. It's real time web monitoring.

I haven't noticed anything. Yesterday, we had a kid delete our internal DNS root. That was fun.

I love how a fat dot is right in the middle of China... the one in Serbia doesn't surprise me (though the magnitude of it is a bit of one).

EDIT: Hungary?! Not Serbia?

I have some sites on bluehost. Not only is our server down, but their entire farm is down, along with their own main site. It's been on and off all day today.
