SaigonNezumi.com Back up and Running

What a day.  I can't believe it has been nearly 5 hours since @anhhung mentioned there was a problem with my blog.

I checked my blog and found a blank Kubrick themed blog.  Uh oh, not again.

I have used AnHosting.com for over 5 years now.  I only had two other minor problems with AnHosting during this time.  One time one of my websites, which I edited, reverted back to an earlier version when there was a server break down.  I also lost a week's worth of blog postings last year when I accidentally deleted the wrong database.  Not sure why I did that.

Thank God for backups.

AnHosting told me that they felt it was a bot that installed a new Wordpress installation on my account.  I felt that it was an automatic script since both my wp-config.php file and database were changed.  You need at least root access to make the changes to the MySQL database.  I could have argued with Support on this one but my goal was to get my blog up and running again after being down for nearly 12 hours.

Backups are great.  I have Wordpress send me a backup once a week.  I will see I can change it to daily now.  I created a new MySQL database and then imported my last backup dated March 27th with phpmyadmin.  Amazing.

Yeah, I will look at using a VPS now.  Not sure which one to use but Linode.com is on top of my list.
