Gamespy flood from 75.102.34.20 this morning

The computer at 75.102.34.20 isn't a GameTracker server. It's owned by a server leasing company, so it's probably a game server that also does some server tracking. Actually, I just did a quick search and found that it's a Half Life 2 server. Anyway, yes, there have been a lot of attacks on game servers recently and it's affecting many different games. It's difficult to know for sure what the motivations are, but one of the usual ones probably applies: someone has a beef against a particular server, someone is trying to spread malware for financial purposes, or Internet sociopaths (aka griefers) are just doing what they do: disrupting the online experience for total strangers for no particular reason. As I've said before, when somebody finally figures out how to punch some griefer's snotty little nose through the Internet, they'll stop doing it.
