As some of you may have noticed this evening, we have been the victim of a large-scale Denial of Service Attack.

Our service was heavily affected from about 17:30 to 17:45 GMT, the time necessary for us to coordinate with our transit providers to absorb the resulting traffic.

You would have seen problems with network connections during this period, which is currently over.

We are paying close attention to the situation tonite to act if there are any subsequent attacks.
