^^ As I had already pointed out hardware firewalls before the server kill this kind of attack! The script is what the script is, a very basic tool to assist those without the necessary hardware to deal with an attack. There are some other things that can be done but I will not discuss them openly here and they are dependent on the type of attack. To say there is no defense against these type of attacks is quite frankly ludicrous, yes they are a pain and yes they take resources but many many organisations including governments and military sites carry on quite well thank you due to the hard work and diligence of the IT security community. I was trying to be helpful but clearly you guys do not want or need any help so I will not post any further regarding this subject.
