Downing Street website also taken down by Anonymous

The Downing Street website also interrupted by a computer hacker who sought the Home Office in protest against the government extradition policies.

The Anonymous collective oath to orient British Government places every week, bringing them offline by overloading them with traffic.

So-called "hacktivists" could launch their cyber attack on Saturday night despite announcing it a few days before, raising questions about the effectiveness of Whitehall Internet security.

The British branch of Anonymous - a loose global community of computer hackers who frequently seek law-enforcement sites - first announced "# OpTrialAtHome" on Monday.

A poster presented the photographs of three British citizens who were sent to the United States to face trial - Gary McKinnon, Richard O'Dwyer and Christopher Tappin - along with the slogan "Fight extradition."

It included the address of the Home Office website and the address to "carry ya lazers" Saturday at 9pm GMT.

Supporters have understood this to be a purpose to unite in a "distributed denial-of-service attack" on the web, in which thousands of computers used to send a flood of requests to visit the victim home, causing their servers to buckle under the demand.

At the appointed hour, Anonymous Twitter feeds ordered followers to "shoot your Laz0rs", and soon reported "Tango Down" as the goal was achieved.

Screenshots shown that the Home Office web site was inaccessible from 9pm and service was reportedly patchy until Sunday morning.

A Home Office spokesman said: "The Home Office website has been the subject of the online protest last night.

"This is a public-Facing site and any sensitive information held it. There is no indication that the site was hacked and other Home Office systems were not affected.

"Measures put in place to protect the site meant that members of the public could not access the site intermittently.

"We continue to control the situation and take measures accordingly."

The militants also shot down the Downing Street website at about 10.30pm, but a spokesman for the Prime Minister said, only lasted a "couple of minutes," and there was no suggestion of it being hacked into. The Ministry of Justice denied the hacker claims that his site was also taken offline.

Anonymous said on Twitter: "It is a digital protest, which is different [from] hacking. Congress want their government to listen to. We can do it as long as necessary.

"Sell your citizens to foreigners is not acceptable! We are Anonymous, we do not forget, we do not forgive."

Another message of the group said, "hope to DDoS (Distributed denial of service) every Saturday in the United Kingdom Government places."
