A2K's server only hosts sites that I own. But ya got the age thing right, they are just script kiddies.

A couple of kids I'm betting. They are using an exploit that I have posted fixes to on the internet. The fixes are probably the reason that this site drew attention.

Now my datacenter has fortified the server to the max and put some traps and alarms. I'm running redhat 7.3 the highest level that has no know weaknesses yet. CDK php shell is at risk.
There is no server on earth that is not vulnerable to a DOS. A2K has not been hacked or cracked. We are just being flooded with requests (pop, http and ftp).
