Lycos may accidentally have launched a denial-of-service attack against its own anti-spam campaign Web site, "Make Love Not Spam".
Spammers are suspected of hacking into and downing Lycos's anti-spam Web site just hours after it went live. The Web site is currently inaccessible and could also be the victim of a DDoS attack.
The zombie army created by Lycos screen savers to attack spammers' Web sites has been dismantled.
After days of negative publicity and criticism, the 'Make love not spam' application is no longer available. Lycos says it's just been too popular, and promises it will be back.
Internet portal Lycos has denied its 'make love not spam' Web site was hacked into and defaced last night.
Plans are afoot to attack spammers by launching the kind of cyber-attack favoured by organised crime and hackers with an axe to grind.
