So does this mean no-ip.com is no more, or only a subset of their domains?

It means, temporarily, a subset of traffic known to be from these viruses should be blocked, within part of the US, it seems.

Being in the Netherlands I can confirm that I got the same results as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7967853, so not just the US.

it's more than that. i cannot get to my (presumably clean, running linux, carefully maintained) home machine situated in chile, connecting from the uk.

No-ip is operational, but no longer handles the 22 domains Microsoft took over. I use no-ip's DNS for a domain name that's registered somewhere else, and it's unaffected. From what I read somewhere else, the reason legitimate domain names are being affected is because Microsoft's servers can't handle the load.
