I would say that it looks like we are out of the muddy water

Well after all this, it doesn't appear to have been an attack after all. After the update, I tried to delete the server cache in xCache, but it doesn't look like it ever did.

I disabled xCache now, so the site might move a little slower in general, but we shouldn't have anything goofy happen again.

In the meantime, we should be pretty well protected against DoS attacks now lol.

Re: Updated vBulletin 10/14/09 9:30am

Its now 3:09pm central time here and I'm still having a hell of a time getting through. When the site does respond it is VERY slow and most of the time I'm getting the server too busy message.

Not complaining, just letting you know. Hope you get all running smoothly again soon. Since I own an ISP I feel your pain, whatever the cause!

I just want to give a big thanks to frosty for all the work he put in today to get the server back up and stable. Sometimes things don't go as planned but he dug in and worked on getting the issues resolved. Without him, we would all be in the fetal position in the corner crying for our PPCG fix.
This post has been thanked 1 times.
