Just to clear some things up as threads like these do more damage than good.
In order to keep shared hosting reliable for all users, there are limits on each user account to keep one user from hogging up the servers resources. This is not the server going down, this is only the $9.95 account you are on being limited. Our terms states :

"1.1. Shared Hosting Usage Terms - Our shared hosting plan utililizes CloudLinux technology. If your account should consume more than 25% of the CPU, Memory or Disc I/O resources at any given time your site will begin to be restricted to prevent other sites on the server from being effected. This technology also allows us to quickly know what site is using heavier resources so we can determine what the cause is and help advise the client what may need to be fixed or to decide if they need to upgrade their account to a private VPS or Dedicated plan if their site(s) are continuing to grow. Our goal is not to penalize or shut down any one site or account, but rather to protect all users and sites hosted in a shared environment. "


Within a few minutes of your original support ticket this morning you were given a couple of options to fix this, one by moving to a VPS.
