IETF Web site Down ?

I have not been able to get to any www.ietf.org site for the last hour
or so, nor can I ping it (4.17.168.6) from mulitple network locations .

Is this maintenance, a server problem or a DOS attack ?

Works for me, maybe they just don't like you ;). Try one of the
mirrors:

www1.ietf.org (Reston)
www2.ietf.org (Natick)
