[QUOTE="LTR12101B, post: 39835, member: 18124"] It is quite possible for site to go down BECAUSE it's been posted. From the usual effect on sites featured on Slashdot, the phenomenon is often known as being Slashdotted - where the the resulting extra traffic hits server limits, extra fees, or just results in server admins pulling the site. Though we don't like blockers here, Proximotron got: 1. Slashdotted by being featured on "The Screensavers" 2. (allegedly) - DOS attacked by those with vested interests in popups and banners. Just one example! [/QUOTE]
