It's the coronal mass ejections... or the alien object orbiting Mercury.

(yes, it's also been debunked as an image construction artifact... or at
least that's what they're telling us.)

  I tried sending a random 2742 KB PDF (some vendor manual from our IT
Library).  After tens of seconds, the popup box added a message that
it had sent around 130 KB of 2.7 MB.  A little bit later, our Squid
proxy coughed up a "Connection reset by peer" error.

  Tried bypassing the proxy and now the home page is timing out, even
with a "telnet" connect from the firewall.

$ telnet www.virustotal.com 80
Trying 74.53.201.162...
telnet: connect to address 74.53.201.162: Connection timed out
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

  I think they're having some issues.
