Call of Duty. No I am not kidding. The majority of the DDOS attacks we see targeted at Residential customers, are because said Customer was running their mouth / being an A**Hole in Call of Duty, and they pissed off someone with access to a botnet, etc.. The other is people gambling for real money and they start to win, so someone else knocks they offline so they won't lose. As for how they get their IP, not really sure as I suck as those games, but I've heard it is pretty trivial to do so. -Patrick
