SCO removed the A records so that there is no dns record to use to target the website. So nice to see the worm foiled so easily. btw http://sco.com still works and points to their website, and all of there sub systems seem to be still up, so they effectively rendered the DoS null and void. All the mail traffic still being generated is a pain though. -- Darragh "Nothing's foolproof to a sufficently talented fool"
