hi,

I was just wondering that The latest attacks on the popular web sites had only
one objective behind it: to bring the web sites and render it useless for the
period of attack. If these hacker really do want to create massive scale
problems why not hack the root servers?!!!!!!!  This will bring down the whole
internet.

bringing down a few dot.coms isnt bring down the net or causing massive
problems espcially for those of us that dont think the net is a retail
store.
