Bastards - Chop's Cash hosted stuff down

Looks like the hosted free sites and galleries from Chop's Cash will be down for awhile.

Your box was compromised again. We are in the process of installing FreeBSD on the machine and converting your DirectAdmin install over to it. This may take us some time. We received a complaint earlier this morning of an Ebay scam coming from your machine. In the process of tracking that down we found multiple backdoors on your machine. If you have any questions, please let us know. I will keep you posted on the
progress of this rebuild.

Sounds like something the host should have been keeping an eye on..

I'm in the little leagues, not the big leagues, but I feel your pain. When those Russina cyber crooks were compromising servers all over the world and downloading trojans to hundreds of thousands of surfers, the server my shit was on was one of the compromised boxes. I've only ever had a larger reseller account, so I found a new host and was uploading my sites within hours of discovering the situation. Meanwhile my old host was telling everyone that it was not the server, that it was our sites. Idiot! He didn't admit the truth, or fix the box, for at least five days after the compromise.
