Well Mike, knowing the way some people strong arm other people and threaten them with law suits   then my guess is someone threatened them. Just my opinion.

Seems he got DDoS on his server and his current(former) Host kicked him out.

Hi Mike,

Latest from Brandon as of November 22, at 3:58pm CST is: 


I'm currently negotiating with my current host (the one trying to kick me out) regarding the circumstances of this most recent attack. It has been over 3 months since the last attack and no configuration settings have changed. This leads me to believe that this most recent attack was simply a run-of-the-mill random web attack, not the variety that I found myself to be specifically targeted before. Hopefully I'm not wrong about this but we'll see what my host thinks of this idea. Bottom-line: I'm still working on the issue and leaving them as a host would only cause other issues regarding speed and support.
