PhotoMalaysia under attack!

Brian has just informed me an hour ago that the SLOWness of PhotoMalaysia is due to SSH attack, some people were sending multiple access request via SSH to PhotoMalaysia server, making our server busy and slow in responding to the normal request in the site from members.

We have no prove of who is attacking us, but we wonder who want to attack PhotoMalaysia?! :(

We will be stronger and stronger each day…will not give up to those that envy us and wanna bring us down.

Below is what Brian posted (attack/requests in less than one second):

Invalid user test from ::ffff:64.46.67.248
input_userauth_request: invalid user test
Failed password for invalid user test from ::ffff:64.46.67.248 port
