Today we had a DoS denial-of-service attack. We are having about 1.4k of visitors each day these days, and today shortly before Sunday School, we jumped to 40k of visitors per hour, and the hosting company shut us suspended our site. I talked with them, and they put it back online for 12 hours for me to fix what was wrong. I have a way of finding out, but the attack started at about 9:45 AM and stopped at 12:30PM, then started again at 6PM and ran until about 9 something.
So, whoever did this knows I would be at church. I will upgrade my hosting plan (pay more now) in order to handle such DoS attacks in the future.
I am sorry for the Cloudflare “are you human” Captua before entering the website, but apparently somebody is always trying to bring this site and ministry down. Furthermore, I have observed this for some years now. I think I know who it is, and they have a competing theWord website, but I won’t name names.
If this ministry website blesses you, please help me. Pray for me and the site that wicked, evil people, whomever they are, will not ruin our ministry.
Please help me maintain this website. Because of the number of theWord modules which I am uploading, I cannot review each module individually. If you download a module from this website, and it is corrupted, poorly formatted, or you think there is a copyright violation, please email me the exact name of the file in question to [email protected]. (This includes if the module is not what it’s filename would appear, like the wrong author, etc.) I would appreciate it very much.
If you find this work useful in your studies, please consider a small donation for the time and effort I, David Cox, have put into making this module and uploading it to the Internet for years. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/davidcoxmex
