Finally, I'm Back On

I have been using Wordpress for the past two years. I keep an account at Bluehost.com and received a notification saying that my blog had been hacked and that I would need to update my wordpress install or they'd end my blog. The simple script they set up did not work for some reason on my blog and the whole thing was hosed. I can no longer log on or anything and frankly, I'm heartbroken. I have been using that blog for more than three years and it is stuffed full of my history. So much so that I don't even want to go into it here as that would be too exhausting and it just makes me more pissed to think about it. When I tried to get help at Bluehost, I was told to go to Wordpress. How disgusting. So, I made a back-up of my blog, saved it to my local HD, and will let my account lapse in September and not renew it.

I used to have no trouble there. I could get on Unlimited FTP and move all the files I wanted until things worked, then, all of a sudden Unlimited FTP no longer worked. I couldn't connect, no matter what I did. Bluehost also would not help me with that. Instead, they told me to call ATT and check my connection for FTP there. I should be a web host, I wouldn't have to do jack!
