Dear readers:

Yes, I know the site has been down all morning.

Yes, I’ve contacted the FBI.

I will try to get back to work, but this has been a bit of a distraction.

Thanks for sticking with me.

Afternoon update: Confirmed DoS attack, with most of the IP addresses belonging to TurkTelecom. Tech people say the attack is shifting to different source addresses. Loading is spotty and slow. Big headache, but we’re working on a more permanent solution. Thanks again for your readership. FYI, I’ll be cross-posting over at Pajamas Media.

Richard Stiennon at Threat Chaos notes:

Don’t forget that the Webroot spy audit finds the highest occurrences of Trojan horses in Turkey indicating a lot of bot armies that are typically employed in this type of attack. (Yes folks, the greatest infection rate of Trojan horses is in….Troy!)
