All I know is that yesterday I was using 93% of my allotted storage. Everytime I logged in the damn thing was red saying I was almost out of storage. Today it notified me that my storage had been increased. I am only using 6% now. Yesterday I was thinking...is it worth the extra change to increase the size of my storage to accommodate the files in there. Today I don't have to worry about it. Nice surprise. First they took measures to try to clean up the spam and now this. Woohoo Yahoo!!! :D

A widespread electronic attack on a company that handles traffic for some of the world's most-visited Web sites knocked several high-profile sites offline for at least 45 minutes early Tuesday. The attack targeted Internet servers run by Cambridge, Mass.-based Akamai Technologies, which distributes and manages Web data for companies such as Microsoft Corp., Yahoo Inc. (Nasdaq:YHOO - news), Federal Express and Xerox Corp. It also handles traffic for the FBI (news - web sites) and washingtonpost.com.
Akamai spokesman Jeff Young said the attack interrupted service to the Web sites around 9 a.m. ET and lasted for just under an hour. All the sites are currently accessible.
