That's another reason why I recommend doing backups yourself. It avoids situations like this--where the webhost has all copies of the data. I also consider any webhhost who says you're using "too much resources" and fails to provide actual details (numbers, RRDTool graphs, etc.) as a big Red Flag and worth avoiding. (Dreamhost pulled that same stunt with me, which is why I'm no longer there, either) -- Doug ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
