It WASN'T WiredTree..it was a reseller of them.Sorry to hear that, Peggy and ArnyVee. Thought WiredTree was the new king. Go with ServInt.net instead.

Hmmm.
I don't buy it.
DDOS attacks don't take out servers. They certainly dont take out servers and backup servers.
Either they were rooted and someone got nasty - or - they weren't backing things up properly.
If they can't get your data, you'd be smart to change Hosts.
See some of these stories about how hackers take out servers from banks and even stole 1.5 million Facebook accounts.
I asked them about this, and this is the reply -Peggy, what I find interesting is that your host is a reseller for WiredTree.
Hi Peggy,
In regards to these servers, they are not resold or a reseller from WiredTree. We simply purchase and co-locate our servers in their data center because we have been with them for such a long period of time. The servers are ours, and are not resold by another party to us. We happen to have a cluster of hardware servers (roughly five) all connected within the same series of racks to allow us easier control over each machine. When one of the servers was taken down on Thursday by this attack, it happened to have a reverse effect on each one. Unfortunately, this is an issue that only affected our specific set. All-in-all, it is a mess that we intend on resolving by whatever means possible.
Regards,

Okay, they are co-located then. Explains the IP address.I asked them about this, and this is the reply -
Thanks I've been going through google cache and getting as much as I can. My site wasn't all that big, so I can do it manually.I see lots of stuff on google cache.
I wonder if there are tools to "extract everything on google cache from my site".
Here are some ideas:

He did say in the email that he'd been a customer of theirs for a long time before purchasing the servers.I wonder if Chris can explain this: http://www.wiredtree.com/aboutus/testimonials.php
I did, and it's not there. Thanks for trying to help Anthony and Steve.Did any of you check www.archive.org for your sites yet ?
How about archive.org? Maybe you can recover something from there too?
See if www.archive.org has copies of your site.
I think that's a good idea.Did any of you check www.archive.org for your sites yet ?
