Internet Predicted to Melt Down by Mid-day
I'm holding off my bets through, I think this will be a day just like every other on the internet. Source: [URL=http://isc.sans.org/]Internet Storm Center[/URL]
You can keep track of the status of a few key routers on the Internet at [URL=http://www.internettrafficreport.com/main.htm]Internet Traffic Report[/URL], the only sight of problem is at Sri Lankan but that was due to a [URL=Sri Lankan port of Colombo]very different cause[/URL].

Well my download from [url]www.csrees.usda.gov[/url] is slower than I could retype the 20 some pages I'm trying to download (rtf format). Other than that things seem normal to me.But you said Thursday, and today is just Wednesday.

"a russian news site" I must have missed the link where they pointed to the original story on that Russian site. Also, Kaspersky's site seems to have nothing on this either. So forgive me if I seem a bit skeptical.

I think this is just bogs, it's not that easy to take down the internet... Maybe parts of the DNS service but to actually flood all parts of the internet so there no longer is no working communication would be very difficult.

Here's more info:[url]http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/52787[/url]Just looks the news (as usual) misquoted someone and sensationalized a story (like that never happens).I bet tomorrow CNN anounces that there's a new virus or windows flaw. :P

Hrm, its now midday CET. Still working fine here, though Apples site is a bit slow to respondThe government networks here are still as snappy as ever (I'm on a 512K VPN link). Though I think that might be helped by how much of Ireland (and hence EU-American link) backbone the state owns through HEANet :-)
