MyDoom

[Moldran]

That's assuming that MyDoom is actually at fault. I wouldn't put it past SCO to take their own site down to generate sympathy. There's some discussion of that over at Groklaw.

SCO deleted the attacked adress from the DNS.
Considering the massive spread of MyDoom, the attack probably was / would have been succesfull, though.

If the attack actually helps SCO or harms them... very hard to tell.

What is interesting though is that sco.com and www.caldera.com are also unavailable. They shared the same IP with www.sco.com. SCO should have been able to keep these sites available by moving them to otcher machines and assigning them separate IP adresses, shouldn't they ?
