fiveworlds Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Low Orbit Ion Cannon (LOIC) is an open source network stress testing and denial-of-service attack application, written in C#. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Orbit_Ion_Cannon Notable uses Project Chanology and Operation PaybackLOIC was used by Anonymous during Project Chanology to attack websites from the Church of Scientology,[9] once more to (successfully) attack the Recording Industry Association of America's website in October 2010,[10] and again during Operation Payback in December 2010 to attack the websites of companies and organizations that opposed WikiLeaks.[11][12] It wasn't used for anything all the script does is count up in a gui. Though why this appears as malware and not "silly toy" is beyond me
