If, by mistake, you mayhave clicked on any one of those links, you are indirectly helping the onlineactivists in their attack on the US government and entertainment industrywebsites which have been organized to protest against the proposed SOPAlegislation.

These anonymous people have started denial of theservice attacks which have been especially designed to shut down the websites.Supporters want the people to download a software named Low Orbit Ion Canon(LOIC). They want the computers get directed to repeatedly connect to thetarget website. With so many digital knocks happening on the door, a websitecan get shut down.

When LOIC is used, the IP address of the individualcomputers who are trying to access the website can gets traced quite easily. Ifthis used, the participants can be traced and put for prosecution. But peopleare fearlessly downloading the software and it has been known that around19,000 people have downloaded the LOIC till now.
