Could it be a spamming virus using peoples address book?

Does anybody on the list know why the MetBull Database is having a huge 
run on people looking up Fukang? It actually brought down the website on 
Saturday morning, with 10s of thousands of hits all at once from 
thousands of different users.  That onslaught is over, but it is still 
being accessed 50x more than would be normal every day.

You don't need to react to this email by looking it up because there is 
nothing new posted.  It's the same old pallasite, last updated in 2009.
