 * On a .htaccess file, add this:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} (GET|POST) [NC]
       RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^login=.*$ [OR]
       RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)email=(.*)$
       RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)text=(.*)$
       RewriteRule (.*) - [F]
       ```
   
 * Beware, it should not block your website for legal queries, so you have to adapt
   it to this ddos attack. It blocks everything after “/index.php?”. So, you need
   to add the right arguments, and you are protected. But, do not use arguments 
   used by WordPress, some functions will not work then. I believe that “login” 
   and “text” are not used by wordpress.

 * Yes, it does help you. Of course the attacker can change these values but so 
   what? When they do, make the appropriate changes. In the meantime, study the 
   htaccess rules and see if you can come up with something better. When you do,
   let us know, ok?
