Okay, so heres the deal: Ive had my site (mandyrocks.com) hosted at ultrixhosting.com for about 2 months now. Good service. The only thing Ive noticed is that every two weeks or so my website is down for like 12 hours. Thats no big deal...But, my site has been down for the past 3 days now. Ive contacted the webmaster of ultrixhosting on AIM but for some reason they have chosen to not reply to ANY of the messages I have sent them. Now I go to their website and all I see is an index directory, not the actual webpage. What could be going on? Maybe this `host` was just a fly-by-night thing? Mad

Any help would be appreciated.

unfortunately it seems your site is still down, so is the case with ultrixhosting site.. maybe they are experiencing some kind of hack-attack... my advice wud be to get ur money and start looking for another host...

Hi, sadly I once was hosted from ultrix. They were down at least 3 times every week. We requested that we get our money back but instead they held our site for randsom! So I advise, LEAVE THAT PLACE!! Oh, and its run by a 14 year old useing his dads credit card.

Google Ultrixhosting. It is quite interesting. Then head over to WebHostingTalk and read some of those threads. Advice would to be to get away from them as quickly as possible after backing up your site and probably deleting all of your files so they couldn't be resold.
