The Web site of Unix vendor The SCO Group Inc. was down from Aug. 22 through Aug. 25, apparently the victim of a possible distributed denial-of-service attack.
A spokesman for Lindon, Utah-based SCO today confirmed the site outage and said the incident is being investigated by the FBI. The site was back up and operating late yesterday.
The incident is apparently the second time this year that the company's Web site has been disrupted by attackers, according to SCO.
SCO has been the target of wide-ranging hostility, especially among members of the the open-source community, since it filed a $1 billion lawsuit in March against IBM that could threaten the future of Linux. SCO alleges that IBM illegally added some of SCO's System V Unix into Linux for its own economic benefit. The suit was later amended and now seeks at least $3 billion in damages. IBM countersued SCO earlier this month.
SCO declined further comment on the incident.
