The DB Server went down again last night for a few hours due to a courrupt backup. This is currently going on in the background, so posts may seem to time out - they are still being inserted into the DB, but will only appear once the backup is complete.
I'm contacting the hosts now to see if there is any other server solution, as this is the last straw for this one.

hehe ... two of my posts are missing ... not a worry, I was only chit-chatting.
It wont do you know ... you'll just have to set your alarm clock for 3am and get up while we are all nicely tucked up in bed and do a manual backup.  You know Linux servers are usually cheaper ...

I did that at about 1AM for about three weeks whilst I was setting the server software up - much rather do that than lose anything
I'm looking into Linux servers now, I'm going to be brave and dual boot over the Christmas holiday to get myself used to it - then I'll take the plunge

ARG - I've picked up one of the problems. The server monitoring software at the host end has picked up some false database errors, and then reset the server which has actually caused them.
Its just done it now and it was working fine Getting them to fix it ASAP.

OK, I've been told MySQL service checks have been removed and it is now based on an http string
