Google foobarred ! DOS attack ????
Looks like the whole Google domain is not responding looks to be like a major crash or DOS attack to me.
Back to using half forgotten sites like Altavista, Webcrawler and Hobot for searches till they get it fixed.

Google has been estimated to run over one million servers in data centers around the world,[17] and process over one billion search requests[18] and
about twenty-four petabytes of user-generated data every day
Fine here. 999,999 to go

Ddos attack lol. You just picking random hacking techniques to fit with ye google issues.
Check out the owasp top 10 it may help you understand more about attacks.
Given google can get a billion requests in peak periods a ddos attack is unlikely unless a group like annonomous got involved to produce enough
concurrent requests from different pc's
Given the fact google have some of the best ips though I would assume is a ISP issue

Google went down for me yesterday for about 10 minutes, it was probably DNS issues but I tried dozens of different domains without any problem.

IPS = intrusion prevention system....
stops distributed DDOS attacks. the last large ddos attack was done in 2009 which effected the servers in the USA.
we look after the infrastructure from a pen testing point of view from the UK and europe.

Obviously IPS will only drop the packets from the DDOS once they have reached the IPS device. This is only partial mitigation of a DDOS attack. You
would need IPS probes at the ISP level (which I'm sure Google has given they run their own 'Internet' these days). The concept that
Google is capable of been downed by a DDOS is unlikely in the extreme, DNS cache poisoning maybe, DDOS on anything except a local level unlikely.

More Likely the OP has suffered from a IE / WIN compromise most likely an IP redirect done via HOSTS.

Google probably fell out with you, check if your android phone is working as well.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
