My theory is that were under attack by government black-hats. Same happened lately with all major pools. They tried and they failed, we´re still here, mining as usual...  Grin

Right, could be competing pools or any person/entity that doesn't want to see BTC proliferate..............

what about white-listing? Did it not stop DDos?

This attack was too big to be catched by whitelisting.

Today's DDoS was different and followed DNS changes. So please reconnect your miners to api2.bitcoin.cz instead of api.bitcoin.cz for this moment. api.bitcoin.cz will work again when attack will be over.

Just for your information: Today attack is over 1.5GB/s with 2.2 million packets per second.

Slush,

I went away on vacation for a week and left my miners running and was not down for 1 minute!!!

Slush is doing a good job. This stuff is just going to happen, relax.

Now redirecting me to google..
I suspect that's an Apache redirect to push traffic off the site; Google is as good a choice as any, as it's large and can handle many thousands of connections at once quite easily. There was mention a few posts back about an "attack", so I'm guessing it is a DDOS of some sort.
