Tony: Re: eBay too, sounds like everything happens to eBay. This sounds like something firewalls should be handling, keeping out repetitive hacker requests. They do use firewalls, don't they? Check out fbi.gov./nipc/cyberissue2000-02.pdf. Looks like the Feds warned something was up last week. ú A Denial of Service attack tool, stream.c, has been discovered which could cause Unix machines to stop responding. It floods the host with ACK?s coming from random IPs with remote sequence numbers. ú A distributed Denial of Service tool called Stacheldraht has been discovered on compromised hosts of several organizations. There has also been a reported increase in intruders attempting to compromise machines for the installation of distributed Denial of Service tools used for launching packet flooding attacks. Well-known vulnerabilities have been the most common targets for exploitation. Adam
