They cant bring down the entire internet...dont forget who invented it..and no, Im not talking about AL Gore. The internet was designed by the DOD and just because they dont have all the newly evolving holes covered doesnt mean they dont have the situation under control.

I noticed the slow down. I am wondering though...you mentioned that they can't bring down the entire net. Why is that?

They CAN'T cover those holes; it was a denial of service attack brought about through packeting. There is no way to defend against such an attack. All they can do is get the servers back up and running again as fast as possible, and track down the rat b*$t**d who took them down.
