Not only that, I would think only the stupidest of script
kiddies would use their own computer to launch an attack.
In many cases, the computer is a university or library
or even internet cafe computer thats been taken over
by the attacker for such purposes.
A non destructive program however might be more useful
just a simple way to detect and document the type of attack
so that down the road a suitable defense might be devised
