Title: OMG! Massive attack
Post by: blackwings on 31 July, 2004, 19:16:11
well, seems like there is a new hub destroyer/flooder.
Today one of my two hubs got a massive attack, crashed once every minute. Deflood 4.3.4 didn't detect it, so whoever it was, could do anything without me and my ops could do anything about it. Dunno what kind of hub destroyer it was, but no spam was seen i main chat or in PM's to OPs. Have anyone else recently experienced this and was using deflood 4.3.4???

I have not made any changes to the hub, so it can't be me that did a wrong configuration or something like that. I tried to close ptokax down and then start it again. But a couple of minutes later it crashed again. Then I restarted my computer, but the hub continued to crash all the time. But my other hub works fine and it use delfood 4.3.4 to, so it's not deflood fault. So I guess that there is a new kind of flooder out.

hi blackwings

check your CPU   for  100% or high usage.

it sounds like youve got a trojan  and the IRC  servers are trying to stop it getting out by Flooding you...


update your virus checker and do a full scan..
