Aweber got hit with a ddos attack Today and yesterday !!

This is just to let you guys know that Aweber is down and any subscriber signups are not working. This happened yesterday as well but it only lasted a short while. This one has been a lot longer.

You can get updates on Aweber twitter page.

UPDATE : They said they have a ddos team working on it through the night.

My interpretation is that this will last till tomorrow.

Lets hope they get some ddos protected servers as a result of this down time, this is not good for a lot of people running their service.

Noticed this too.

Was just about to sign up for a free WSO. Shame.

This is costing me a lot my entire system runs through Aweber. They better compensate their users for this.

I just don't understand why some people are such dicks. Whats the point of doing a DDOS on this site?

Ah shit that sucks. Luckily I don't use Aweber myself.
What makes it even worse is that all already successfully sent mails won't do any good neither, as it seems the tracker is down as well for outgoing links..

That's just not the way forward... I wonder what they hope to gain? I wonder if there's a "send us $100 trillion dollars" email that went to Aweber...

Shit no wonder hits were so low today. Analytics never got a change to load due to Aweber javascript.

This affects everything since all my traffic passes through an squeeze page before I send them to an offer. Aweber better give its users like a month free or something better because you would expect a company like aweber to be better prepared for this, especially with so many other companies getting hit with ddos attacks.

This can cost me up to a few grand.

Aweber is getting hit with another DDos attack today, that is the third one this week. WTF!!!!

I can't believe they were hit again. I sure hope they provide some sort of compensation.

I would like to know more about the reasons behind this, why would someone even want to DDOS Aweber? An angry customer?
