    Hi

    I have been having problems with my hosting this is what they are saying.

    Can anyone shed any light on what it could be?

    Thanks in advance
    There were more than 85 connections from the IP (Ip address here )to the
    domain blah blah .com . Also there were too many access to the database
    23334_hothot.

    It seems that your site is consuming a high amount of server resources.

    We are going to investigate more this issue on our side and we will get
    back to you soon with an update.

    It can be an attempted DOS or maybe just high traffic, not much we can say at this point other than wait for your host reports.

    I will await their report,

    Will they be able to put any security in place to stop that if that is what it is?

    To many people on your site at one time, you need to get on a better webhost, contact me if you want to be hosted by me for just $7.95 per month!

    if it is DOS attack or other malicious entries, they will block it for you, since its for both parties' safety (you and them as provider)... regardless of shared or vps or dedi

    Could mean a couple things, server is not closing out connections right, too many people going to your site, DDOS attack, Tell your host to review the error logs and maybe they could help find the root of the problem

    is it face buddies .com?
    that case, I dont like the price the hosting provider of yours is selling for..

    800GB BW for only $15/m will not even cover the server fees..oversellings

    move host to decent host and you will be fine!
