there were a few things that actually happened yesterday..

firstly was the SQL server exploit.. which is months old, and a patch has been out for months, its just tards who use MS software (which is bad enough) who don't patch their boxes

secondly was a large scale DDoS attack, which brought UUNet (one of the world's major internet backbones) as well as other major backbones, which was a result of the above

slashdot had abit of coverage on this, even BBC had a story on it (on their site at least)

but alas.. its basically all over now.. and we can all get back to our pr0n
