a DOS attack on a website is generally pretty useless, unless it's a DDOS, since it's difficult to generate enough traffic from one place.

It is possible to take up all server connections, by sending a whole lot of TCP SYN packets without replying to the response.

On Topic: Fantastic news, I'm glad to see this is being worked out. I hope this site gets back on its feet as soon as possible =)

And if you fake random IP addresses you are able to take a lot of servers down, if you want to.
