Site was down

The site was down for a little bit this morning because somebody attacked the server that this site was on.

Perhaps I am being a bit paranoid..... but why did the attack choose this particular server?

ICE site used to be hosted by Host Gator. Now, as far as I was able to tell, it is being hosted by some guy running a server out of his house, not by a professional company.

Ok, that's not exactly my choice for a business website.

As for this site, I'd think it more likely that you were some collateral casualty. The people who host their site on a guys server in his basement don't look like the people who attack other peoples websites to me. And I doubt that this site here has gotten that wide-spread a recognition so quick.

Like I said, a bit of paranoia on my part...

You know the saying, "Just you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you."
