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."

Medvedev blogs? On LiveJournal no less?

That's hilarious. I wonder what he blogs about.

Ehehe. This is kind of fantastic.

I find this equal parts amusing and disturbing. Medvedev's at best a puppet-king and at worst he had to authorize the attacks.

But for some reason the idea of him on LJ is hilarious. I want to find his blog and comment solely in lolcats.

LOLCATS: The universal language.
