WE'RE BACK
October 22, 2003
The Tax Update, along with rest of the Roth & Company web presence, was knocked out of service yesterday. The cause apparently was - strange as this may sound - al-Queda sympathizers. The story goes that they went after one or more sites hosted by the hosting company we use in a "Denial of Service" (DoS) attack.
DoS attackers plant programs on unprotected networks; on signal, the programs all attempt to contact the targeted site, overwhelming the system. To learn more about the attack on our host, go here. To learn how to keep your system from being used in a DoS attack, visit here.
We regret any inconvenience our absence caused.
