Temporary problems for bmwe21.net

Peoples,

The servers hosting bmwe21.net are currently undergoing a DDoS attack. For explanation see below. This might result in temporary problems to access the website or slow the website down. People are working hard to solve this problem within days, or preferably, hours.

Please note that in no way there are security issues as a result of this attack.

Further, bmwe21.net will move to a brand new ultrafast server in the next few weeks. After that all will be even better than it ever was!

Apologise for the inconvenience!
Wikipedia wrote: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 efforts of a person or people to prevent an Internet site or service from functioning efficiently or at all, temporarily or indefinitely.
