Waaahaa my site has gone

[GenghisK]

Well could anybody tell me what the problem is. Here are the clues.
_ I (used to?) have a free host for my homepage.e
_ since May 2002 when I opened it it worked pretty well.
_ suddenly 2 days ago I could see that the pics hosted by it don't work when linked. So I went around to see what was happening.
_ damn, when I logged in, everything, absolutely everything was gone. Including the index.html. No file at all.
_ I checked the log and it said last modification was on dec 31st. And on the 31st I was at my parents home, with no internet connection. And it's not a referenced site so nobody is aware of its being here. So I don't think it can be a hacker.
_ I tried to ftp again my backup. No way to upload anything even a 1kb file to my site. It says file transfer failed/impossible.

So actually I would like to hope that it's only a temporary host crackdown. But if it's not, what happened? That's really annoying loosing everything.

Is it a "free" homepage from your ISP? If so, have they pulled it down because of something like you changing ISPs?

Can't you contact the hosts?

Actually they're also hosting my email. and it does work pretty well, POP and SMTP. So I don't understand why my site isn't hosted anymore. Maybe they are going to move to bigger servers. But I have received no warning email about this...

Contact them via e-mail. Is their main site still up?

 

[GenghisK]

Yes I did that, no answer yet. Plus everything including their main page is up.
I asked another friend who had an account there to test his site. Guess what. We could access his files via ftp but it was impossible to transfer/copy them to our HD! There IS something weird happening. Unfortunately the hotline and the support really suck. I guess I'll have to accept the tragic truth.
