                    Almost every other major telecom is bankrupt (or in bankruptcy protection).

                      We were dropped without any warning. End december/ begin january there where some server problems , but that was fixed. It sucks i din't move my business then, because i was going to.

                      I have everything backed up, but i have been so stupid to have no backup that is exactly the same as on my server. So directory names are not the same and so on My mistake.
                      I have 10000s of files on that server and i hope to get them back, but this makes it impossible to move quickly to another host.

                      I'am on a co-dedicated from a friend.

                      The sites you see loading Bobo, are on a second host of mine. A small part of my business is there, but 90% was on my other host.

                            My host had their connections at sub provider of verio. That subprovider went out of business. I don't know the name of that provider, but i'll try to find out.

                                Wonder how many people took an extra backup of their servers after reading this.

                                I know I did.

                                      That sucks man, but honestly no host is going to email it's customers and say "Hey, we're having financial problems and might be going out of business soon" because everyone would leave and find hosting elsewhere (eliminating and chance the company had to make it). The hosting market is fucking competitive.
                                      FTVGirls simply convert better.
                                      More free content than SobeGirl and
                                      conversions almost as good as Swoit!

                                        Yeps, thats how it goes in every type of business.
                                        Too bad a websitehost takes alot of customers down the drain with their problems.
