Sorry, host-grid.com, my host provider sucks... that's what happened.
I've only recently been able to establish an ftp connection, and it appears they have dumped all of my content. I've emailed them several times, but no replies. For now, I've just uploaded my index file. I'd rather know wtf is going on before I go the the bother of re-uploading everything. Instead, I may just go find a new host provider. I'll repost when it's all sorted out.

Thanks

hurricane electric is a great host, but you have to provide your own servers I think...

I'm on www.simplehost.com right now. So far, no problems except for some mysterious down time for several hours yesterday. For less than $10/mo., I get 40gHz of bandwidth each month and have unlimited disk space. It looks like I'm going to be averaging about 15gHz a month...

And it looks like they're offering 6 months free on their business plan right now.

I'm still on a free plan that I signed up for last time they had a promotion. You'd think there would be service problems on a free plan, but there aren't. And the few times I've e-mailed, they've gotten back to me in 24 hours. If it's that good for free, think of how good it'll be when you're paying!

Also, domains are only $5 or $6.

hmm....Those are some interesting hosts.

I personally use : http://www.brinkster.com I think they're pretty good, and quite reliable.

You can't beat the deals on a static hosting plan.  $5 a freakin year!

I have had them almost a year, and it is pretty reliable.  However, they do not do backups, so it is your responsiblity to make sure you keep a backup on your computer.

moosapotamus is an extremely interesting site.

Good luck!
