I finally found who is the responsible or at least the IP address of the author of this DoS (if generating 1.5Tb of traffic in 2 days and making the monthly traffic exceed thus making the website down is not a DoS, then what is it?) and you can be sure that this guy will have to pay the traffic, sooner or later.
Administrative stuff is taking too long so I think it will be easier to pay the bill now to have the website back up.
Aircrack-ng cost me around 60 euro per month (+ domain names that have to be renewed each year, wireless cards, traffic, ...) and although we have around 30K unique visitors each day, unfortunatly donations are quite low (the total for last year was around 80 euro). The reason why I'm writing this post is to ask for donations to pay that bill (around 130 euro).
So, any donation to tdotreppe@aircrack-ng.org (paypal) is really welcome.

Website down
Unfortunatly, the website is down due to an error in traffic calculation.
We usually use 30-40Gbytes per day and we have 1200Gbytes of traffic per month, so enough for each month.
But the 14 and 15 April, their system say we use 688 and 884Gb (= more than 10Mbytes/sec for 24 hours) of traffic (so 20-30 times what we usually use) thus exceeding the allowed traffic per month.
I'm contacting them to try to fix it as soon as possible.
