The Chicago Tribune reports:

A group calling itself Anonymous, a name used by disparate groups of online “hactivists,” threatened to take down NYSE.com at 3:30 p.m. ET today as an extension of the “Occupy Wall Street” demonstrations that have continued into a fourth week.

The site was reportedly down for only about one minute.
