It is hard to believe that there are so many sad sacks on the Internet who have nothing better to do than to create problems for successful surfing and HYIP programs through DDOS (Distributed Denial Of Service)
and SPAM attacks.

For the uninitiated, DDOS attacks involve getting a whole array of computers (usually hi-jacked) and attacking a particular web server by sending thousands of concurrent requests. This either causes the server to crash or at very least occupies so much of the server's CPU power that it is no longer able to service its normal requests.

Here is an example:

Hi everyone!

Many of you may have noticed that Phoenixsurf has been offline since early this afternoon. I just spoke with Brent Anderson, the forum mod., and he explained the situation: Today, Phoenixsurf was doing some regular system audits. They found a guy in South America who had 250 accounts, and they deleted his accounts and blocked his IP address. He was apparently not very happy about it, and began doing DDOS attacks on Phoenixsurf. Phoenixsurf is isolating the areas that are under attack and correcting the problem. One of the things they can't access is the email addresses of all members, so that is why they haven't emailed us to tell us what is going on.

Today will be a surf holiday - meaning you WILL get paid even if you didn't get a chance to surf. You can always count on Phoenixsurf to make things right.

Please forward this to everyone in Phoenixsurf!

Spam attacks, on the other hand, are caused by miscreants deliberately sending out mass email messages and making them appear to emanate from a particular domain or program. This usually causes the ISP, webhost, DNS Service or Domain Service to close down the APPARENT offender.

Guardian International Travel, VascoInvestment, and AlienTrust are just 3 of MANY HYIP and autosurf sites who have been recently affected by 'SPAM' attacks.

You can get news on these and other programs that we follow by using the 'Recommended Programs link in the right column.
