There seems to be a massive DNS poisoning happening across several mmos
and the purpose of something like that, usually is to misdirect login to phishing sites that steal accounts.

Wow has been having the same problems like these you guys are referring to.

If you have trouble logging in open a command prompt and type "ipconfig /flushdns" (needs admin rights command prompt in vista) just as a precaution.

There are also attempts to compromise local dsl routers by changing the dns they use to some other that misdirects your internet queries with results similar to what I've said above.
