from the RTE report:
"The biggest victim of MyDoom.A was the Utah-based computer software firm SCO
Group, which was subjected to a denial of service attack on Sunday.
Its site is still offline today."
Wasn't it indicated by someone on this list that SCO actually removed the A
records to www.sco.com themselves and that the other addresses pointing to the
same website still function perfectly well, i.e http://sco.com so that the sco
site is actually still fully accessible and is not offline.
