I read what a DDoS stood for, then I forgot. What does it do? (I had 8 Trojans on my comp yesterday, shot it the head a few seconds later).

"distributed denial-of-service"
One computer tells many other computers to spam another computer to hopefully use all of its resources.

DDoS means a Botnet attack on a server. Causing so many requests that the server shuts down. This is caused by Zombies. Which are controled by a "Bot Master"

Not quite.
For example, let's say a web page uses 100% CPU for 0.01 seconds.
If there are 100 or more bots per second, the CPU is always being used thus denying service to other people trying to use the site.

This is not impossible, but it is extremely difficult to do. If someone wants to do something badly enough, they'll find a way to do it. The thing is, tasks like this are things that hackers usually stay away from because of just that; they're extremely difficult to do.

You can't hack Blockland locally, as in, on the client.
To be able to do anything, you would have to actually hack the computer the server is being run on.

Isn't this one of the reasons you have to have your PC on to host?
to stop exploiters/hackers?
