Annotations

dc:descriptionA form of DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK which relies on the fact that administering visible widgets such as WINDOWS and BUTTONS on a screen consumes a large amount of resources. A typical example of a window attack might involve the creation of a large number of windows displayed on a screen. The amount of resources required to manage such a large number of windows can easily render a computer inoperable. (ODotI)
