It will be hours, early evening best case. We cannot beat the attack we have to upgrade and absorb it.

Couried across Europe ???!! I was told Adult Work was based in the USA ? LOL... what's going on, Europe or USA ?

Beating a DDOS attack is hard, can go on for ages... even with new hardware... only certain things you can do... and most only help slightly... Really sorry this is happening, sure it's costing people a lot of money each day it's down, none more so than AW themselves... :(

A DDOS attack doesn't effect the data stored, just the ability to connect to the site... if the attacker has done anything more, such as hacked the database then there could be worse to come, ie missing content/funds... but I doubt that very much...
