I found out about this here:http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,11978690~mode=flat
Apparently, there are a lot of fake bank sites out there that scam people out of money. Take a look at this one for example:
http://www.valleytrustincorp.com/
Honestly, what bank would have a lame entrance page like that?
So anyways, this site:
http://www.aa419.org/bandwidth.shtml
Decided to make a java script or something to load images from the bank's servers over and over again. Here's the link:

Eats up their bandwidth, and they get a high bill. I'm doing this all the time now, on both of my connections.
the aa419 has claimed to shut down or temporarily shutdown 169 fake bank sites... pretty cool if you ask me!
