check your server logs... get the ip address and add a deny rule to the .htaccess in you root folder...

I'm guessing by DDOS you mean over port 80... if so just deny access for that address.

Except if they are exceeding the bandwidth you have, you're screwed anyway. Think that there is a pipe to your server. If that pipe is blocked all the way to it - nothing you do at the server level can help.

According to my host, they exceeded my bandwith of 2TB within an hour because the attack was so large at times. Now, my site has been down for a while because we are caught in a limbo as to if they are attacking.

Curtis, it is obvious you upset some badass because of a previous action you performed... orelse you would not be in this situation. And I'm sure you know exactly why they are attacking you. An attack of this magnitude is not ran by a kiddie.

Even if he knows everything, he cannot do anything about it. Those attacks are not ran by amateurs. It is obvious they use many zombies combined with a ton of Windows computers from the daily armada of unprotected online users. You realize the attackers are pumping 512MB/sec worth of data to his pipe, right?

My site isn't down at the moment, as my host has been a ton of help in helping to mitigate everything. However, I am sure it isn't over.

Hmm.

Something seems a bit fishy here.

Just wondering, by any chance is the person first quote who is blackmailing you?

Just because you didn't want to advertise their site? What? I don't even know why people do this. These attackers should just let people run their site peacefully. Take the time to improve their own site and make it more marketable rather than waste their time and to hurt somebody else. If they do that, people will advertise them without their need to even ask! Just look at Google! Practically every person sources them for no reason at all!

My site I am sure makes plenty of enemies because we are constantly banning people who scam users. Just like any other trading site. However, as far as I know the attacks have nothing to do with that. If they do, no one has claimed that at least. Now my main problem is my host can't open my account back up because I am too high risk. Anyone have any advice for a high-risk hosting plans?

Cleaned thread from all replies that where advertising a hosting service. Hosting discussions should take place on vB.com.
