Could user computers be attacked when attempting to go to the THR site?

Nope.

Derek, if the attack is coming from one machine, can't you just ask your ISP to block inbound packets from that IP address? It's tough to stop a DDOS, but a DOS coming from a handful of hosts should be pretty each to squelch.

If it's a handful, you're right.
Sorry I don't have more details. Once we confirmed the problem my ISP took care of the rest. I don't have the kind of diagnostic tools on the server to be able to determine which hosts (or how many) are involved.
Well, I
didn't, anyway. Should be able to get solid info pretty quickly in the future, though.
