Attack on Lieberman Site Probed

Those "tolerant", left wingers that talk about free speech so much took down Lieberman's website the night before the election.


Quote:
U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman's campaign Web site remained offline Thursday, and federal and state authorities were investigating why it crashed on the eve of this week's defeat in a high-profile primary.
The site, Joe2006.com, appeared to have suffered from a so-called "denial of service" attack, in which computers overwhelm a site with fake traffic so real visitors can't get through, said Richard M. Smith, an Internet security consultant in Brookline, Mass.
There is a reason by left-wingers in America has so much in common with Joe Stalin and wear Che shirts; they are for controlling speech while crying that their free speech is being violation (usually on national TV were millions are watching).

I despise the left-wing fringe in America. They are all for freedoms unless they don't like you, then they take your freedoms away.

Was it the greatest security ever? Well it just got hacked so, no," Geary said. "But we had industry-standard security. We could stop bows and arrows and bullets, but not a tank, and that's what this attack was."

Joseph E. Horzepa, general counsel for The Planet, said he could not comment on specific customer issues, but said the company was "very sensitive to security."

Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said the state is investigating, along with the FBI.

"The state has computer forensic expects, both in the state police and elsewhere," he said. "We have some expertise and federal authorities have very impressive resources. I am very optimistic that ultimately any wrongdoer will be apprehended."
Denial-of-service attacks are hard to trace, though, because they often commandeer computers infected with certain viruses. Owners usually have no idea their computer is even accessing the Web site.
Lieberman's site was hacked a month ago as well.

The site also was attacked by hackers a month ago. They were able to replace Lieberman's page with one that said, "We ownz u site."
