    My site has disappeared and I don't what it is that is on it.

    Take a look at my sig link and PLEEEEEEEASE someone help.

    I trusted someone from DP with my ftp username and password the other day to add a favicon to my blog, have I been had?

    He has over 8000 posts and thought I could trust that.

    What do I need to do???

    Its a DNS issue, just as vagrant said, the domain name lookup times out. The name is not able to be resolved to an ip address.

    Start with your hosting provider and make sure everything is setup on on their end. This can also happen if you let your domain name expire.

    1. Make sure you have the domain registered
    2. Check the DNS
    3. Mail you domain register and hosts, they may just be performing maintenance or have a problem on their end

    looks like you got it sorted, or they were doing maintenance, as i can see it back up again :)

    Nice site as well... have bookmarked it for a better look.

    Yeah all sorted :)

    HG said it was something to do with the redirect I had on but they sorted it out.

    Cheers for the bookmark mate

    I am not sure why but it only has a PR 1 today and has been PR 2 for a month or so :confused:
