Today I will discuss an Advanced 
Attack to Deface a site. This Attack is used to stop functioning of a 
site so that no one can access it.
NOTE: Remember friends this is purely for educational purposes, 
please please please don't use this for illegal activities... Don't use it to harm any Server or site. 
DDoS Attack:

Distributed denial-of-service attack (DDOS attack) is an attempt to make
 a computer resource unavailable to its intended users. One common 
method of attack involves sending an enormous amount of request to 
Server or site and server will be unable to handle the requests and site
 will be offline for some days or months depending upon the strength of 
Attack i.e. (Data Sent to the Site/Server) 

Basic Procedure/Logic employed in DDOS :
1.) Open Command Prompt in windows by going to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt.
2.) Type "ping site-ip -l 5120 -n 100000 -w 1".
Here "site-ip" is the IP Address of Target, You can also use site-name 
like "www.google.com" instead of site-ip."5120" is the size of packet 
sent to the target Which is 5 KB in example."100000" is the no of 
requests sent to the Target. "- w 1" is the waiting time after each 
request which is 1 sec in example. You can change these parameters 
according to your need, but don't omit these.
This Attack is also called "Ping of Death"
But In Actual a Single Computer using this Attack cannot Deface a Site 
for long time. Hackers Create and install botnets on different computers
 as trojans and use those Comprised Computers also to send these Dummy 
Packets to Target. When a Large no of Compromised Computer send 
simultaneous Requests to the target, the target site will be offline and
 defaced.
