My website and e-mail were down for several days after a company 
called Navisite took over another web hosting company called 
Alabanza. Navisite then did some kind of huge conversion of host 
servers early last Saturday, which is now becoming one of the biggest 
disconnects in Internet history.  Reports say that 200,000 web sites 
were affected, and many of them are still down. My site is still up 
and down intermittently, and my e-mail has only been working since yesterday.

I'm trying to see how widespread this situation is a would appreciate 
hearing from anyone else whose site and e-mail were brought down by 
the amazing incompetence of Navisite.
Thanks,
Gary Todoroff
