Gene Shklar Quotations

What better Web site to attack than the Web site of the TV network that's doing news about this very occurrence?

The Yahoo! web site is normally among the fastest and most reliable on the Internet. Yahoo! consistently delivers its home page during business hours in an average of 1.5 seconds to T-1 connected locations around the U.S. with a reliability of 99.3 percent or better.

Denial of service attacks occur periodically, but they are not as common as people trying to hack into a site, since hacking in enables you to alter the site's content and post something for everyone to see.

This happens by some malicious people writing a computer program that send too, too many requests to a Web site.
