Default Merlin - D-DOS Attack

Dear Customers,

Merlin.eukhost.com is facing heavy D-DOS ATTACK. Apache service has been stopped but even after that, netstat connections are being established. Our senior system administrators are in the process of sorting this out. We will have this under control at the earliest.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
