Hi Guys,

My good friends website has been getting DOS attacked for the last two days, is there anything that we can to find out who this person is?

As far as I know you can't sadly as many machines are used to bombard one.
 
as EP says, it's normally more than one machine attacking just the one.
If you're "lucky" you may just be attacked by a single person and able to get their info from incoming data (ie: get the IP, find the ISP, report abuse and stop the attacks)
 
you can trace the locations of the packets, report those attacks to the owners of the machines and get them to clean out their PC. If they can send you a copy of the bot that is on their machine then you can disassemble it and find out how it is controlled (a lot from IRC Networks and channels)
Then go and ***** at that networks IRC Opers
 
Thanks for all your input guys.

I kinda figured as much.

Thanks again.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
