Warning: disturbing a war memorial can provoke all out cyber war--at least in Estonia. On April 27, 2007, Estonia officials relocated the "Bronze Soldier," a Soviet-era war memorial commemorating an unknown Russian who died fighting the Nazis, a move that incited rioting by ethnic Russians and the blockading of the Estonian Embassy in Moscow. It also started a large and sustained distributed denial-of-service attack on several Estonian Web sites, including those of government ministries and the prime minister's Reform Party. A denial-of-service attack (DoS) occurs when someone directs a large number of requests to a target URL; the requests occur so quickly that the Web server can't respond and the site becomes inaccessible to everyone. A distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS) occurs when hundreds or thousands of compromised computers are enlisted. Within the last week, the intensity of the attacks diminished.
