ZoneEdit.com: Attacked (again?)

The last couple of days have been extremely worrying for me; I woke up yesterday morning and checked my email, and was confused when I found a mahoosive total of...well, none. Upon checking redgalaxyuk.com was still working, I found that our main nameservers had gone down. What followed was a barrage of changes, frantically trying to get our web site and email working. Did any of them work? Well no, obviously.

In my efforts to try and restore some sanity, I had a look on Google to see if anyone had posted anything, and what I found wasn't very reassuring - ZoneEdit.com had been hit with a Denial Of Service Attack, exactly a month before this. You can even read about it here. Strange, eh?

Quite amazing really, as I've been using ZoneEdit's services for a good four years with no problems; I even used up my free credits and moved onto paid ones! You can bet your life I won't now...
