It appears you are being attacking in the same way...
I'm not aware of any solutions, but I suggest you look into ways of preventing DDoS attacks. A router with even mediocre firmware may be able to filter out a few of the attackers, but if you are being attacked by thousands (via a controlled [probably infected] network), it's pretty hard to do anything. -Dave _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
