Vix, I've been avoiding you since misrepresenting - I dunno, something about tattoos. Anyhow, Linux? Goodluck. This software (V-Girl - Deskbabes) was written for Win & Mac. Linux - Unix Systems are business server operating systems with multiple security vulnerabilities in subroutines. I suggest he/she upgrade to Win 7 if Microsoft lover or, Snow Leopard for Mac. Win 7 home basic runs seemless, home premium even better. (EXCEPTION) Win 7 Ultimate which I use has "XP Mode" and, a Linux Powershell built into it's matrix, meaning its simply turned on or off at the operators leisure - W2M Post S - it's very likely a linux system is/was responsible for the ddos attacks. Affordable & Useful only to huge corporations, militaries, ***** & warlord type insurgents.
