MyDoom Windows Worm DDoSing SCO

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the now-thats-just-not-cool dept.

We mentioned the myDoom Worm just a few hours ago, but more information is available now, mainly that its ultimate goal is apparently to DDoS SCO. You can see some more detail at NetCraft. Obviously SCO has a lot of enemies out there right now, but it's always sad to watch someone stoop to this level.

    Speak for yourself. I'm quite glad someone's done this. I only hope the cutoff date for mid febury is only the date the virus stops spreading, and not the date it stops ddosing.

    THANK YOU VIRUS WRITER GUY I ADMIRE YOU

  2. Stoop to what level? by VTg33k · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Slashdot DDoS's websites every day, crashing servers, costing people thousands of dollars in bandwidth, without even so much as a friendly warning... this is just another stupid virus, not a political agenda, move along, nothing to see here...
