Quakenet down for 3 hrs

If you use Quakenet IRC regularly, you may have noticed the netsplits, and other problems with the network in the past few days. This was due to a Denial of Service attack on the network. They have managed to stop the problem, but will be upgrading the software on all Quaknet servers to increase security.

This, of course, means downtime, and in case you missed the Broadcast message in Quakenet it will be down from 6am CET, which is (correct me if I am wrong) 4am GMT (which is 5am BST... I think). Anyway, it shoudn't affect many people, and should be done in 3 hours.

On the subject of Quakenet, come and check out the UKT team and regulars in #ukterrorist.
