Well DERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

A ping flood is going to effect an M10 the same way it would any user... the
same as flaggle, smurf... so on....

Other than the fact you will pay for the extra traffic.

As for the rest, the DoS would have to be designed to exploit something
exploitable in the m10 (software or hardware)
Like anything the posibility exists...

Currently i am unaware of any exploits.... but have found something that is
begining to look pretty :)
Will let people here know if something comes of it.
