SEOUL - South Korea is learning more about the mysterious cyber attacks that targeted the country and its ally the United States, but the ultimate question of who the instigators are remained elusive.
The state-run Korea Communications Commission said yesterday that it had identified and blocked five Internet Protocol, or IP, addresses in five countries used to distribute computer viruses that caused the wave of website outages in the two countries that began in the United States on July 4. None were from North Korea, which South Korean officials suspect might have been involved.
