It could be the DNS that is messed up, but also the server configuration, as well as the web site configuration itself. If your hosting company has suffered a DOS attack and made some counter-measures i'd say it was them (your host) that had messed things up while restoring to normal. They should be able to fix it. Your competitor (similar domain name?) is not likely the one behind this, as doing a thing like that would be too obvious. Most likely it's just a typo somewhere, at least that's my best guess. /claus

| I would seriously consider finding a new host. This was not a mistake based on your comments above. I would be looking at the host and their association with the competitor that the sites were pointing to. | They did change it right away but i wonder how long it's been like that and how careful i have be from now on. |
| Did they change it for all the sites that were pointing to the competitor? Or, did they just change yours. Sure sounds like something fishy is going on.

Interesting --- my site is actually one of the few sites that actually requires the www part --- without the www it my url doesn't go anywhere.

| You should be able to get your host to fix this, It is simply one line of text in I believe the httpd config file. It is an alias so that domain.com points to www.domain.com I think that is how it works. luck, robert
