Thanks for the all the suggestions, I've checked them out. The only one I disagree with is hostgator - I used them in the past for a large forum and they were crap, I even had a semi-dedicated box with them and it was unstable as hell, their network was down all the time too and their admins were incompetent. Co-lo is a bit awkward for me as I'm not in the US, so putting it in a data-center here will be slow for everyone else. Well I was taking fairly regular back-ups, I just hadn't put a system in place....this blog has grown big over-time before I realized it. I'm just glad I backed up on Sept 10th! That really saved my ass. Pedro no shell access, if not I would have automated the back-up long ago. Anyway proper back-up will be in place when we move to the new server whichever way I have to do it :) Thanks again for the support.

Before godaddy I was with a horrible company (guesshosting) that was hacked 3 times in 6 months taking down my site completely. On top of that there were two total servers losses in the 6 months prior to the 3 hacks. Godaddy support has been very responsive. Not sure about the paypal requirement though...

Best of luck with getting everything back to normalcy, or as close as it gets to normal. If you're feeling down, I recommend saying "POOP", only in a high voice like a choo choo train was making the noise. Ha Ha, "POOP", just thinking about it while I write makes me laugh, cause its a funny word. If you need anything, you know how to contact me. L8s Man that sucks.
