Just in case some of you haven't seen this notice from IB posted at the top of the page.

We really want to apologize for the downtime suffered over the last two days. Unfortunately our Internet Brands network was targeted with a series of cyber attacks that severely limited access over this time period. Our tech team has worked around the clock to resolve the issue. We absolutely appreciate your patience and understanding and do apologize for the inconvenience caused by the attack.

To their credit, they're doing a pretty darned good job for the most part. After all, they now own and develop pretty much what's considered to be the #1 commercial forum software -- vBulletin.

Their networks may be suffering issues every now and then, i hate it when it's slow and won't load, but also do understand that like everyone else they go through growing pains and can also succumb to unforeseen issues. Nobody is perfect, even the almighty Google Inc. suffers from some pretty bad problems, and they have one of the more robust networks anywhere, not to mention they own a big chunk of dark fiber in the U.S.

^ they are also owned by IB. Someone definitely launched a successful DoS attack. If the attack was IB wide then I'm sure they had everyone possible scrambling to fix it. That kind of outage is never acceptable in an IT organization.

Thank you whoever put this up. Nice to let everyone know what was going on and apologize even though it wasn't really their fault they were attacked.
