Seems server came under a DoS attack which targeted a virtualhosted domain. (Spammers who increase google-pagerank by getting the topmost links by visiting a blog the most, with result that sending thousands of requests per second just to boost their own "visits" resulted in overload of MySQL and Apache)
The attacks are blocked.

Actually I do.
One originates from the host: monaco.software4the.net
another from: spyware1.dcu.ie
The second link is an irish university.

Yargh, damn those Irish and their fine Whiskeys and Guiness. I KNEW they were scheming something, them and their crazy lepprechaun allies. On a different note, it's a bit of a bummer you keep coming under attack.

hehe.. well, it's mostly annoying if anything.
Not that I cant block them out manually.
