Skype Down - Day 2 - Is the Entire Internet Next?

Skype-watch.com and ZDNet reports that it’s a DOS type of attack from code posted on a Russian website and not quite the story that Skype PR person Villu Arak is telling. Then again maybe it’s none of those explanations, it could be regarding how Skype interacts with Microsoft Outlook. With each passing hour Skype is losing credibility due to this major outage.

So it begs the question, what if the backbone of the Internet was to fail or be attacked in some manner, how much chaos would ensue?
