Well, talking about "blessings in disguise". Our DDoS attacks earlier this week had our mirrors prepared to stay online. So, while 95% of the Internet was down last night, most were still able to get to the UA website and still can. Of course, right now, we have the forums down due to some cleaning and upgrading (going to InvisionBoard).
Events like this with SQL Server, just show how there's a difference between an experienced and skilled IT worker, vs the wannabe. Unfortunately, wannabe skilled workers tend to dominate. =( Anyway, I'm looking forward to the Internet getting cleaned up. Hopefully, with a DDoS this size will get these ISPs to wake up and do more than simply blocking a single IP.
