Update for Sep/26/08

Hey Everyone,

Well i said once i started getting paid i wouldn't write updates for a while (unless i didn't have payments). However, there is something going on that is affecting my earnings (an many other people) at some of my new sites i joined which is why i am writing the update.

Lately paid to click sites have been having DDOS attacks. I know most of you don't know what this means so theres a pretty decent explanation (from wikipedia) below or can you trust what i am about to tell you. Basically its when a website is being attack by a person using a program so bad that a site can not load pages an no one can get to the site. Here is an example, you know those slow websites you go to where it takes forever to load one page? The reason that happens is when a lot of users use the site and the site can not handle the many users on (or else the slow loading happens because you have dial-up internet). But anyway a ddos attack is the same thing except the attacker uses a program to make a website think theres a lot of users on it and basically brings the website down. The difference between the 2 this when you go to a slow site eventually the page WILL LOAD when you got to a site with a ddos attack it will basically tell you the site don't exist.
But anyway basically the attackers are getting mean because if you go to this site
http://www.ten-ads.com/ (which i am not apart of this site right now) but basically if you read it you will see that whoever is attacking there site is basically threating the owner of the site an saying pay up to stop the ddos attack! which its against the law to do an also its just rude!!! i hope the guy who is responsible gets caught an has to pay the owner the fine!

but besides that...well boomertowne.com is being pronounced as a scam (at gather.com) as of last sunday (21st of sep). Basically the site has not paid anyone since around may 2008! an the site went down the day before sunday. Which i am pissed because i was waiting on 100 dollars an was going to use it to put flooring down! but i am even more upset for this one lady who had 300 bucks owed to her! there is a group of people at gather.com who do a lot of reward sites (thats how i found out about the site) an there all basically saying the site is gone an that all those people who were waiting to be paid basically getting screwed. I must admit i am pissed at what boomertowne.com did. If they couldn't pay they should of stopped doing the reward stuff or they should of told us they couldn't pay an say they will pay us when they can. But shouldn't of just closed the site down an walked away. if this site EVER comes back...i guarantee a lot of users WONT be doing it unless boomertowne.com apologizes and pays everyone what they are rightly owed!Although i am mad at boomertowne.com i am going to give them till december before i report them ON MY BLOG as a scam. because gather.com might be saying to soon that this site is gone.

i guess on some better news me an scott (husband to be) started our own site. Its called game-army.com. Right now we are waiting on 100 users to join and then we want to start a part in the site where the users who plays the most games per month gets a reward! We hope to come up an do some better ideas then just this in the future but for now just trying to get ads going an users joining so PLEASE JOIN GAME-ARMY.COM

But this is it for now, tune in sunday to hear about my next paying site!

A denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a computer resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, motives for, and targets of a DoS attack may vary, it generally consists of the concerted, malevolent efforts of a person or persons to prevent an Internet site or service from functioning efficiently or at all, temporarily or indefinitely. Perpetrators of DoS attacks typically target sites or services hosted on high-profile web servers such as banks, credit card payment gateways, and even DNS root servers.

One common method of attack involves saturating the target (victim) machine with external communications requests, such that it cannot respond to legitimate traffic, or responds so slowly as to be rendered effectively unavailable. In general terms, DoS attacks are implemented by either forcing the targeted computer(s) to reset, or consume its resources so that it can no longer provide its intended service or obstructing the communication media between the intended users and the victim so that they can no longer communicate adequately.

Denial-of-service attacks are considered violations of the IAB's Internet Proper Use Policy. They also commonly constitute violations of the laws of individual nations.[1]
