    Sorry to hear about your mum.

    Your website hosting ... they have no backup?? We run a hosting server and do daily backups and a separate weekly backup.
    I still can't shake the eerie feeling that some force that had been looking out for me all these years suddenly got bored and moved on, can't explain that one I just have a sense of something missing

    As for my web hosting service, I'm getting more and more annoyed with them and am almost certainly not going to renew my contract. Between them and my service provider that went down for almost a week after my box blew up it's been one hell after another with the online experience I thought it kind of strange that my public HTML folder should just VANISH! Personally I think Maxi is going online while I'm at work and wiping me out in retaliation for my putting the cone on her head

    Finally some good news...I located the missing public html file on the hosting end, it was somehow moved into the public ftp directory. All my images and web pages,blogs etc are safe and sound within it just needs to be moved back to its rightful spot. I can't find a way in filezilla to do this so I emailed hostpapa to see if they can do it for me. So all is not totally lost

    OK I say you can put up with many of these things as life's way of showing you your alive, but the red smarties thing that's just beyond anyones natural coping abilities.

    sorry MAW but I do believe that we are often at the whim of the universe.

    Michael, sorry to hear about all of your bad luck. On a more serious note, maybe talk to your power company or an electrician. Your bad luck with your mo-bo, camera, hard drive etc. just might not be a co-incidence.

    Well... This is how the world works. All energy flows according to the whims of the Great Magnet. What a fool I was to defy Him. Never cross the Great Magnet. I understood this now...

    Images and some blogs are back up after my hosting service and I put the file system back in place following some unknown cyber hurricane that ripped through. Folders had been moved and permissions changed, someone/thing had a regular party in there
