| quote: | Bush's Campaign Site Reported Blocking
2 hours, 15 minutes ago
LONDON - U.S. President George W. Bush (news - web sites)'s official campaign Web site has blocked access to foreign Web surfers since Monday, an Internet monitoring company said Wednesday.
Netcraft, based in Bath in western England, said the site, www.georgewbush.com "appears to be rejecting visitors from most points outside the United States, while allowing access from U.S. locations."
Netcraft did not report any reason for the blockage. "We can't say precisely, except that it seems to be a decision by the maintainers of the Web site," Rich Miller, an analyst at Netcraft, said in a telephone interview.
Miller said the company had detected a six-hour outage last week which affected by the Bush Web site and www.rnc.org, the site of the Republican National Committee (news - web sites). The latter site was accessible from Britain Wednesday.
"Last week's simultaneous outages for GeorgeWBush.com and RNC.org prompted speculation that an electronic attack may have occurred, as the two sites are hosted on separate web servers," Miller said in a statement posted on Netcraft's Web site. "The Bush campaign told media the outage was "no big deal" and offered no specific explanation for the outage."
Netcraft said it monitors Web site response times from four locations within the United States and three in other countries.
"Since Monday morning, requests to GeorgeWBush.com from stations in London, Amsterdam and Sydney, Australia have failed, while the four U.S. monitoring stations show no performance problems. Web users in Canada report they are able to visit the site," Netcraft said.

Somehow I seriously doubt it was because of the Bush campaign...
Be interesting to see who the culprits really are though...
(cue the conspiracy armchair theoreticians...) |

I am pretty sure it means they blocked access to certain countries because they have been attacked. It's something very common.
Usually organizations don't want to say anything about being attacked. |

Why do you all think Kerry is going to be so much better than Bush? Is the world going to be automatically fixed?
This is a lot like that hilarious little speech from Team America: World Police.
Pussies dont like dicks because pussies get ed by dicks. But dicks also s. s that just want to on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with s their way. But the only thing that can a is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is they too much or when it isn't appropriate. And it takes a to show them that. But sometimes pussies can be so full of that they become s themselves. Because pussies are a inch and half away from s. I don't know much about this crazy crazy world, but I do know this. If you don't let us this we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in .
Pure comedy, but please don't eKill me. |
