Around 10 PM EDT a massive Denial of Service Attack was launched against Accurate Reloading's servers. It came from Asia.

I"ll run some IP numbers to narrow it down.

with the whole lion thing it figures - surprising it took this long

Not if it came from Asia butchloc, they eat lions bones so they can get it up!

I've now gone over the log, it started in Moscow and India. There is a smattering of Nigeria, Ukraine, Bulgaria, and China. The bulk is Russian and Eastern Europe.

There are a few from Western Europe but I think the way this works is servers get infected and wait for a signal to start a DOS attack.

In any case, the first attacks started in Moscow and surrounding areas, then India, then from ALL OVER.

If this were because of Cecil I think it would be different.

In any case, by shutting off the server from the router for a few hours it passed and we have been unaffected all day.

Perhaps it was in response to all the discussion over the Ukraine.

Well we have a poster whose IP goes all the way back to the Kremlin.

Sounds like it was handled well. Thanks.

No doubt a close associate of the huilo Putin.

Here's a link to a website that shows attacks occurring in real-time, can be freaky/spooky at times:
