O.P. Grin  Very Interesting DDoS Story
If your interested in how DDoS works and what someone actually goes through when they get DDoSed this is a great story. It's all true and very interesting. It may be long but by the end you will have learned a thing or two about todays new ways of DDoSing.

Yeah that's indeed an interesting story, although bear in mind it's fairly old and botnets like that are becoming less and less common.

I wrote an entry on my wiki about botnets that may complement the grc one nicely, at least at least it might clear up a few things.
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true.
