Been at least 7 hrs I know of
I hope everything is ok and. They are updating or having a change window

One of my sites was hacked not long ago. Caused me a significant PITA and took a while to find out what and how. 0 day in Wordpress though so nothing exciting

Thanks for the info.

BTW, the wordpress thing I was talking about was on my site, just to clear up any confusion.

DDOS is pathetic, I have no time for those idiots.
