I'm back up. I was officially down from 1:03 EST - 1:42EST +/- 5 minutes. Could someone please describe how the DDOS attacks work, and why they cause so much disruption. It bothers me some that I don't quite understand the mechanics of how an attack like this can knock out an entire datacenter. Thanks!
