Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has condemned as "outrageous and illegal" a cyber-attack on a popular social networking website that hosts his blog.
The LiveJournal site was hit by a denial-of-service attack on Wednesday.
The site crashed after being bombarded with messages from thousands of infected computers, an expert from the Kaspersky Labs computer company said.
Russian media say a similar attack has now hit Novaya Gazeta, a newspaper often critical of official policies.
In his blog, President Medvedev said: "As an active user of LiveJournal I consider these actions outrageous and illegal.
"What has occurred should be examined by LiveJournal's administration and law enforcement agencies."

Looks like it's mostly video blog entries, a mirror of his videoblog at kremlin.ru.
