The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the US Secret
Service are investigating the latest attack on the Recording
Industry Association of America (RIAA)'s website, which has been
offline for days.
"We are working to get our site restored so the press and public
can continue to get the information they want and need from the
RIAA," spokeswoman Amy Weiss said.
The RIAA site has come under attack in recent months, apparently as
a result of the group's efforts to stamp out online piracy.
However, Weiss added: "We will continue to fight theft on the
internet and work hard to make sure songwriters, artists and other
copyright holders continue to get paid for their work."
