DDoS on spamlinks.net hosting and anti-stock spam sites

The host for spamlinks.net, spam.abuse.net, and others was
subjected to a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack starting Friday 12th
January 2007. The attack peaked on Sunday 14th and was largely mitigated around 4pm (PST). A low-level attack was still underway as of 17 January 2007 and efforts are continuing to mitigate it.

At least two other spam related websites (worldwidespam.info and spamnation.info - both hosting information about stock spam) were subjected to DDoS attacks at or around the same time.
