Ebay is bidding out an internet security website.

It's not worth what they're asking for, but no one has bidded on it, and the price keeps going down.

Thought you guys might be interested.

Rofl, that price is a little steep... Hell I only payed 4k for UGN...

Besides, DOS? Comeon...

i could buy a lifetimes supply of spam with that and liveout my days in the mountains hunting... tins of spam.

:yuk:

Yeah, I suppose DoS Help is a pretty stupid name for a security company - If you need help with a DoS attack, you probably aren't gonna be able to get online in the first place...

But I hope someone buys it anyways, b/c if the site goes down, then where am I gonna get the Trojan and Virii port lists that I need for my - um - research.

(This be Gizmo...)

Wow, you are a newb... You know the Operating System DOS, that Microshit first developed for IBM? The piece of shit they sold BEFORE they even owned it? The thing that's been around well longer than Denial of Service was even spoken?

Jesus...

yet another eason why i never talk shop with a programmer/COMPUTER savvy person:

i invariably wind up looking the idiot due to ignorance

Don't worry, we think you're a newb due to other aspects as well

ha!
i can think of a few of those reasons

but reserve the right of not having to mention nor hear them

It's good that you don't have VIP access for now then ...

lol irl
i heard about that.

no need to remind me. hopefully when i do get it back the articles will be waaaay back in the 'storeroom'.
i bet inf. will save 'em for me tho.
a sour reminder and his bragging rights.

*sigh*
im his bitch for life now.

I'm going to assume that this actually WAS Gizmo for the sake of simplicity.

First of all: WTF!?!?

Yes - I do know what DOS is. (I use Windows afterall)

Second of all, the website is DoS Help. It's pretty clear if you read the banner on the site. :p

/rant

Yes, it was me... I see nothing on the site (other than the punctuation) which would lead me to believe it had anything to do with Denial of Service...

The reason I know for sure is because I origionally found the site through this link:

DOSHelp.com "Provides security incident reporting services for victims of Denial of Service (DoS) , intrusions and system scanning attacks."

That used to be their mission statement, but it's not directly on the site anymore since they expanded to spyware and viruses - now their mantra is "Security, Privacy, & Anti-Phishing".

- but seriously Giz, you're losing it - why would you think that "Security, Privacy domain + website" had anything to do with DOS?

Well, firstly I didn't look at the site too closly (I have a fuckin newborn and ADD for gods sakes, do you really expect me to pay THAT much attention?), secondly the auction made no referance that it was a Denial of Service "recovery" site, it strictly stated "for sale, doshelp.com"...

BTW, DOS was an operating system, as with any operating system one could be a paranoid bitch (look at weeve for god sakes, the fucker is so paranoid he's about to be homeless)

Damn, you win. I only have ADD, three uninvited houseguests, and these ticks from all that Ritalin.

Oh yeah, and I've been up all night - but that's nothin compared to - KIDZILLA
