According to an AP report the New York Stock Exchange's website was apparently hobbled twice Monday, possibly the result of computer attacks as part of the anti-Wall Street protests, according to a company that monitors website response times.
.
San Mateo-based Keynote Systems said the NYSE website experienced a one-minute outage around 3:30 p.m. ET, then a half-hour outage about two hours later.
But NYSE spokesman Ray Pellecchia said an investigation by the stock exchange showed no disruptions to its website.
The loosely organized Anonymous hacking group has threatened an attack on the NYSE. Some protesters have objected to those threats because of the impression a hack would leave about the movement as a whole.
