DDoS Attacks - Need help!

[Ak47]

Advice: dont piss anyone off who knows how to DDOS.

There are no software firewalls that can stop any True DDOS attacks.

Talking about "true" DDOS attacks... hardware firewalls are able to filter the traffic only up to some certain amount. So when the "true" DDOS attack comes, they're useless anyway.

Also wondering how you found out that you're being DDOSed, because it's like the first thing people say when they don't know what's happening with their server.

Different ips but thanks.

Probably a botnet attacking you. Just wait it out...

Well, if you're conviced that it's a DDOS attack, try this -> http://deflate.medialayer.com/

If it doesn't help, try HW firewall.

If it was really a heavy DDOS measurable in gbps, the data center would have nullrouted your IP a long time ago already.

Any idea how long it takes? Blocked a few more IPs today.

Thanks, just installed (D)DoS-Deflate. Hope it works and sorts it out.

It may just be your host is a known target for DDoS attacks chances are your host has been on a few hacking forums in his past or is a acclaimed Anti-DDoS host that also will make him a target as people will be out to ''eXpose'' him if you site goes slow and doesnt denie acess this may be the case.
