PhoenixSurf.com Surf Holiday due to DDoS

This just in from the folks at NME Global:

----------
We have a quick update on Phoenix Surf.

Yesteday, we received a massive DDos attack on the PhoenixSurf network. (For those that don't know what a DDos attack is, please read the definition at the end of this email.) To compensate for your inconvenience, we have made the 26th, 27th, and 28th of April as surf holidays. This means, that those people that have bought advertising packages that were still active on the 26th, 27th, and 28th of April, will be paid their 15% regardless if they surfed or not on these days. We will keep you all posted as we are working hard to fix this challenge and as we move PhoenixSurf to another server. Please inform those that do not have an NMEGlobal.com account.


Sincere regards,
The NME Community


DDOS Attack Definition: On the Internet, a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is one in which a multitude of compromised systems attack a single target, thereby causing denial of service for users of the targeted system. The flood of incoming messages to the target system essentially forces it to shut down, thereby denying service to the system to legitimate users.
