Flood the world with downtime. Er, love.

Hot on the heels of Lycos' "Make love not spam" campaign (which ended in total disater and the whole "let's DoS people's servers with a screensaver" idea falling to pieces) comes a new wave of crud, ready to slow things down just for you.

That's right, if the inevitable imitation virus wasn't enough for you, we now have script kiddies and do-gooders galore who think they're carrying on a noble tradition of - er - server flooding.

It was only a matter of time, but coders are now piecing together their own flood tools, and asking people to go out and whack servers that happen to contain the odd spammer or malware installer. Great, except they're still ignoring the fact that totally innocent users who use those servers will also be affected.

Okay, their current target only houses three sites so maybe that's a bad example, but I'm sure you'll get the idea when the users who download the tool

a) get bored of panet.org and
b) decide to point the damn tool at any random website they feel like.

Promoting "Spyware Revenge"? Someone needs to start promoting baseball bat revenge and hitting some home runs.
