Following the announcement of the open source troubles, SCO has been hit by some DDoS attacks. Attacking a company by cracking their networks is not the thing to do to express your disapproval. Really, I hope they catch these people.

SCO's Internet service provider, ViaWest, told SCO that about 100 high-speed T1 data-transmission lines of network capacity--about 90 percent of its total bandwidth--was being consumed in the attack. "It was a large, extremely well-orchestrated DDoS attack," ViaWest told SCO.
