That's a tough question Defending against a ddos is very complicated, and outside the scope of this thread. This hack may give you a hint as to what range of IP's should be blocked, if their activity level is suspicious. If it shows a thread being targeted, and bringing the server to it's knees, you may want to hide the thread for a while.

The hack is simply a monitoring/diagnostic tool, what you do with the information is up to you. But it's better to know what might be happening behind the scene, than not having any idea why things seem too busy.
