So, how shall i put this... our current host got an HDD crash and they didn't even bother to restore the files! After several attempts to contact them, they refused to fix the problem and just apologized for the damage they caused.

For our bad luck our last backup was 15 days ago. Well this should be considered lucky as for our sites for example rardownload.net we lost over 2 months of database! And in fulldown.org the same thing! In serialhun.com we lost the whole database! In warezguru.org it was also a bad loss. We might start from scratch when it comes to the last two websites mentioned.

I ussualy do daily backups but in my case it is very hard to download the backups under a 8 kb/sec connection!! Got what i mean?

This is life here, very slow connections and lucky i was able to survive all this time. If you can give us a host where we can transfer our backup files we will be very happy or atleast provide us with a TRUSTED online ftp service for very low or free of cost.

Thanks for taking the time into reading this and i personally apologize for any inconvenience.

Have a nice day.

Update:

To all our fans, good news! At the end of each day, a full database backup is done, and it is uploaded to a server in a different geographical location. This will insure even if the whole country is under a nuke we will have backups in totally different servers. We are having almost the last 90 days of backups archived automatically.

The same applies to all our network sites, but in a slower pace. Hope this solves this serious issue completely in any future problems we might encounter.
