They tried getting brand new servers but all the hosting data was lost. As a result the company shutdown (but they did get a migration deal from Hostgator for the customers to move there)… Some of my sites are still down and I doubt I will rejuvenate them as they weren’t doing very well anyway…<p></p> The biggest casualty seems to be <a href="http://earley-christian-fellowship.org.uk/%20">Earley Christian Fellowship</a> as it has dropped out of Google’s index which makes me fear it go dropped as Google saw it was hacked!!!
