As regular visitors will be aware, this website, which is operated on a dedicated high traffic server hosted in the USA, is being brought down on a regular basis. By coincidence or otherwise, it often seems to happen when we publish negative information about Royal Dutch Shell, such as in WikiLeak cables, or revelations concerning Shell Malaysia whistleblower, Dr John Huong.
“Distributed Denial of Service attack, it is when a server is bombarded with so many requests that it cant respond to legitimate traffic.”
