Actually, it was down for an hour two days ago, but they fixed it really fast once I contacted them.
This time, it's giving me "connection refused".
According to InternetSeer:
"Connection Refused
A Connection Refused error occurs when the web server's host computer is found, but the host computer refuses to accept the connection on the default port. This usually indicates a problem with your web server software or the web server software is not running."
I can log in to cPanel okay, and get email just fine. I just can't see my website. Is that the same thing that's happening to others here?
Anyway, I put in a support ticket so I'm just waiting now...

Full Version: My site's down this time...
Yes, I'm getting connection refused. I can FTP in but nothing visible on the web.

They're definitely working on it! Now it says this:

bpgisme, I've seen your posts around the forum and I'd like to ask you for your domain name and permission to track the uptime over the next few weeks and compare it to several of mine. I use two seperate web hosts with prices that are comprable to Hostony and have had remarkable success. While uptime certainly isn't the only factor in what makes a good web host, it's something that offers a window into the reliability of the web host. It wouldn't be anything intrusive, just a simple check every 20 minutes. I'd like to see if I can convince you, and potentially others, that Hostony isn't the best web host for the money -- not even close.
Its BEYOND my knowledge why my post was completely ignored.
Any answers please?
I asked why my site was down and got NO answers.

No thank you, Saturn. I am very happy with Hostony. I did quite a bit of research before I came here, and I've been here since January of 2004. I'm not leaving. Thanks anyway. 
Dark Hedgehog, er... I must have missed something?

Dear Dark Hedgehog,

Dear Bonnie was your problem fixed?

Yes it was, Slavik! I posted about it here:
http://forum.hostony.com/index.php?showtopic=4516
It was Dmitriy who helped me this time. (Is Dmitriy related to Max?)
I figured it was related to updating Apache software or something, since that Apache page came up for a short while.
All is well for me. It's been working great ever since.
Thanks for asking!
