DDOS attacks are hard to stop because of the nature of the attack (multiple IPs hitting you). One solution I found was a simple, free script that you can run as a cron job named DDOS-Deflator. Here is the link: http://deflate.medialayer.com/. I am currently working on a C version of the script which responds much quicker. You can check my blog. I should have it available very soon as we are in final stages of testing http://www.sandidog.com./ As I said, DDOS is hard to stop until but the simple script has helped with some of the lamer DDOS/DOS attempts that I've seen in the past.
