Welcome this would depend on your location and tongue , Big Linux is now in its 4 incarnation, and is squarely aimed at those in Brazil and other Portuguese-speaking countries, I have seen it on help forums before [when it was Kubuntu based]

from Cloudfare Important! Note that this error is not caused by any Cloudflare malfunctions. Furthermore, this issue can happen no matter if you use a premium or a free version. IMO I think its just server load on the site, some 3 years ago at this time of the day we would have around 200/300...

DDos attacks are made on main servers, the idea is to overload them and cause a crash [as you have seen] nominally these attacks are on web servers to cause disruption, Like @wizardfromoz since swapping to Linux I have never had any malware problems
