this sounds like a good idea. when a hack is taking place would the home page not be available? is this because they are running multiple scripts which takes all the resources?
can you explain this a little more as i feel like it is a good idea, and would like to understand how to implement it thanks >To test if I have been hacked: I run an automated task from my >home computer that requests my home page every 15 minutes.
