Could such a thing be possible? I have not been able to access any Google website including my Gmail since Friday. I thought something was wrong with my Linksys LNE100TX LAN card, but I was very sure I installed the drivers correctly. So I tried other sites like Dogpile, Yahoo, MSN and the pages load up without a hitch.
Finally, the thought came to my mind that perhaps Google website was down. A quick check from Yahoo search seems so with many comments from various site saying Google site is down. This was very indeed very unusual.
DOS attack? Server got hack? Who knows? But to have a giant brought down to its knees is unimaginable. The official version from Google was DNS issue. It tried the DNS given by someone, http://216.239.37.99/ nope it didn’t work either.
Well just have to wait and see what happens.
