One of the most famous Torrent tracking sites, Demonoid, was shut recently by Ukrainian authorities is at the receiving end of one more blow as the domain names for the site are up for grabs.

Demonoid, which has gone titsup since about a week because of DDoS attacks, is still under darkens and hasn’t managed to come online. In contrast to signs of recovery, it has come to light that people are being redirected to an ad network that is serving malware to unsuspecting visitors.
Demonoid, one of the most famous BitTorrent tracker site, has been at the receiving end of a massive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack following which it has been inaccessible since about a day and is expected to stay offline for quite some time. Millions of users across the globe were greeted with the message “server busy” instead of the usual welcome screen. Administrator at Demonoid has told TorrentFreak that this time around the issue is not that easy to fix and that beyond DDoS attacks there might be some other forms of attack against the tracker.
