Crackers Disable Chinese Site

The People's Daily newspaper reported that Web site BlogChina.com seemed to 
have been knocked out for three days by a flooding denial-of-service (DOS) 
attack. The website has since been turned back on, but the closure of the 
site coincided with the planned global hack attack recently by many 
crackers around the globe. Fang Xingdong, who started the website, was 
quoted as saying that the attack was provoked by his outspoken attacks on 
online porn.
