While we were all of the subject of JWR, someone took his site down.
WARNING LANGUAGE**
You can still view his site through this link.
Pretty messed up that someone can just take a site down like that.

His site is still accessible through his US server and there are two dotted quad direct addresses, one in Sweden which is presently under a denial of service attack and the US,
http://64.92.111.122/ US server
http://95.143.193.148/ Swedish server
The dotted quad addresses don't have to go through a lookup, they go directly to the site.III We are everywhere. -
That's pretty screwed up. Pathetic actually.
As soon as his site is back up, please someone post about it so we can let people know.
I'm gonna tack this thread for the time being.Boris- "He's famous, has picture on three dollar bill!"

You can get in through the U.S. server.
Message on site----
This past weekend, our server in Sweden was put under a "ping flood" Denial of Service (DOS) attack that at times resulted in 65% packet loss.
The attack was timed for a three-day holiday weekend, no doubt because the miscreants expected that the staff at our ISP would be unavailable to help us reconfigure.
OBTW, the attack initially did not include our dotted quad backup address: 95.143.193.148 (Which is explained here.)
At least this provided a good test for our Continuity of Web Services (COWS) defenses. Obviously, we are now going to need multiple mirror sites as well as an adaptive cloud server that can handle any future DOS onslaught.

What is troubling is that the perpetrator is writing in racist terms and using very suspicious English. This alone makes one wonder if someone so ignorant is really behind the hacking?? I know it sounds like i need a tin foil hat, but the entire episode is suspicious.Comment
