Hello,


We had to firewall the following IPs for making excessive connections to
your site forum.ppcgeeks.com, this caused your site to slow down and the
apache to become overloaded.

The IPs were (# on the left is the connections being made)


1014 75.24.90.214

1040 66.249.70.101

1052 24.118.28.90

1330 198.253.30.237

1398 24.124.21.196

1525 71.36.49.58

1663 144.226.230.36

2971 144.226.173.68

6076 82.114.185.195


We have blocked the IPs from connecting the your server so that it will
not bring your site down again. If this is not an IP that you want
blocked please let us know what it is being used for and we will see what
we can work out.


Also the 66.249.70.101 IP if from Google, if you want to continue to get
searched by google you will need to remove this IP from the htaccess
file; But before you do that please read up on how to limit how much
google crawls your site to keep the load down.
