This has cause quite a problem in login efforts for all users. If you would take a moment and copy paste this information to an email in complaint to the ISPs we can absolutely shut them down for good.
Send this email to: abuse@cv.net

"Hack attempt"
Date and time of occurrence (with reference to your local time zone); Between December, 21st and December, 22nd. GMT -7
Intruder's IP address; 24.188.21.159
Intruder's sending port; 25565 and possibly many others.

Type of communication (TCP or UDP); TCP
Indication of frequency by count or list and type of attack, if applicable.
This appears to be a constant attack, beginning on December 21st. This public service website (minecraft.net) accepts packets of information regarding a community assisted server list. Minecraft.net's main purpose is to obtain the packets of information and sort the server list. Through this ip address it has been found to be a flood of these packets over flowing the minecraft.net server list, cause slow connections to the entire public. Many server name listings under the name: "DeltaGamers.com Map Making."
Please consider looking into this incident and deal with the offender appropriately.

Fill out the rest of the fields as you want and click submit. You may choose the remain anonymous button.
The idea is not to worry about whether or not this fits under the precise correct category, but rather to bring it to their attentions. If we sit by, we will accomplish nothing and it will continue to be a problem. Be active!

How long did this take you, good sir?
Spamarian:
I suggest you to don't follow it, because can create problems.
When you send something, then you become target.

Don't be rude.
He's a coder in python that wants to open a server as far as I know.

That's me. Hmm I should have made it a little more clear as to why this effects wom. And now I actually have a lot more information. :)
Turns out there is a program someone made that sends faux heartbeats to the mc.net classic server list. Everyones internet can support up to 65535 ports. We assume there are at least 5 "hackers" using this program to over populate the mc.net server list, which causes all sorts of problems. A large list, means long sort times.
aaaand I just read the first post.... I guess this is what happens when you have 3 forums up and all of the problems start with "wom is having issues."
Well.... then.. I feel real smart.
waylay: This is now a fyi thread........
So now you know why wom is having issues, and mc.net doesn't load it's classic server list.

To write up that email? Probably 10 minutes or so.
Terrewee:
that doesn't fix my problem as i have had it for about half a year....
Keaft:
What brand of video card do you have? Drivers up to date? Seems like ATI tend to break the mold.
What size world does it have textual issues? (ie. 64x64x64 all the way up to 1024x1024x1024)
Do you also play SMP? (might try removing the minecraft folder in %appdata%/roaming/ See if that has any effect)
As you suggested, it could be ram. I assume you are running it on windows. If you can try to get hold of memtest86 and run it. Often linux distributions have memtest86 included. You might also check the Ultimate boot cd. Everyone should have one of those :)
