Ok, teddy, RT, jusSaying, did one of you guys do this to wikileaks, if ya did, stop it right now :VeryScared: :biggrin: :Whistle

A web attack has been launched against the Wikileaks site set up to host leaked US diplomatic cables.

The deluge of data launched against the site managed to briefly make it unreachable around 1200 GMT on 30 November.

So far no-one has come forward to claim responsibility for the so-called denial-of-service (DoS) attack.

A similar attack was launched against the main Wikileaks site prior to the public release of the first cables.

Wikileaks revealed that the separate cablegate website was suffering a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack via a message posted to its Twitter stream.

The cablegate site went live on Sunday night and soon after started to suffer occasional downtime.

OKay, I admit it, you caught me. I uploaded copies of all the democrats' pork spending bills from the past six years simultaneously and the Wikileaks cablegate server couldn't handle the massive amount of data.

I figured a hacker stole scruffy's porn library and tried to pass it off to Wiki as top secret documents.

The actual attack had to be Scruffy trying to recover his porn.

Probably trying to get copies of Julian Assange's personal homemade 'rape' porn.
