Is LunarPages doing anything to prepare, prevent, or just beef up security for a planned attack like this?  With the high volume of webpages that LunarPages has, surely some of them will be targeted.

I knew this would happen... Never under estimate the power of DDOS and brute force attacks.

A battle among hackers erupted on the Internet Sunday as some factions disrupted a loosely coordinated "contest" among other groups trying to vandalize thousands of Web sites around the world.

Unknown attackers for hours knocked offline an independent security Web site, zone-h.org, that was verifying reports of online vandalism and being used by hackers to tally points for the competition.
