| 682300 | 2008-06-25 04:54:00 | i tried to add a stat counter to my web site, acronum.com, and when i tried to test it by going to my website, i typed in my domain name and it redirected me to a blog website. I have completely re-uploaded my website and physically checked all the coding my self and i am rather :yuck: :yuck: :yuck: :yuck: :angry: off about it! what am i meant to do, to get rid of this THING? do i report this to police or what? does anyone else get redirected? thanks |

| 682301 | 2008-06-25 04:56:00 | Yeah, that's annoying! :lol: I'm not into the web side of things, so don't know what to do about it...but definitely it's a problem across the board - tried it from two different ISPs here - same issue, even going through Google. No doubt someone will know - Greg, Stu, someone else...? :help: |

| 682303 | 2008-06-25 05:35:00 | Have you checked your control panel at Dreamhost to see where your domain name is pointing? If it is Dreamhost that you also bought the name through Perhaps that has been hacked/changed? |

| 682305 | 2008-06-25 05:50:00 | Interesting. I'm sure Chilly will sort it out, Hosting plans look pretty sharp. |

| 682307 | 2008-06-25 06:13:00 | ill send an email off to him now How long have you had the domain name for, as it shows that it was only registered on the 2008-05-14. Are you sure that you didn't forget to renew it, and it has now expired and purchased by someone else? It looks like it is more of a domain name issue, rather than a hosting issue. PS. I would only ever buy hosting from a well known company, that has been around for years. |

| 682308 | 2008-06-25 06:21:00 | no, thats how long i have had it for. Got a reply, he's sent an email off to DreamHost and hopefully it will be sorted out soonish rather than later. with hosting, he wouldn't become a moderator if he wasn't trusted. |
