    Great email I got:

    Hello
    There has been a bank fraud script found on the server. The server is now suspended and under police investigation.

    I can understand how you feel. I am losing a lot of business as well. However, there is nothing that I can do at the moment as things are out of my hands, and Police are not known for being fast in their work. I can release the domain to you if you desire, but there is nothing more I can do.

    I think that last line is a killer line eh??

    So what I need is what they were offering:

    # Some Web Space
    # Unlimited Pop3 email accounts
    # Some Bandwidth per month

    Was about £10 per year, by paypal.

    All I need to start with is one package urgently to get my old emails up and running, so I will need to contact the registrar and amend the DNS settings, then when that expires, to use a new registrar maybe, maybe not, if it isn't cheap to change registrars?

    Then I need to take off darken the other 4 or 5 similar little packages I had, and get them transferred to a new registrar and set up, as I used their free domain name packages.

    Anyone recommend anyone who is helpful & cheery and not too expensive?

    tia of any replies.

    GoDaddy and Namecheap are the leaders in name registerations and transfers.

    I used to own a few online games, So i had to look at alot of stuff concerning hosting. The best resource i found to get all the info you need on a hosts downtime, prices and also reviews on them etc, is Web hosting talk

    As your only using the mail systems and you dont say anything about databases/crons etc, Finding something suitable should be relatively easy for you.
