My site's database keeps getting set back to an old version. I noticed it when I suddenly lost about 4 pending users. I'm using Rochen, so I asked them and they said it wasn't possible, but the site had definitely gone "back in time." Since the links were old too. They think I was hacked, but has anyone ever heard of this??

This is happening to me too. I lost quite a few changes, made them again, and now it has happened again. How did you flush DNS, and after you did that, was your database restored to its current version, or did you need to add the lost information back again?

Thanks so much.

if in WIndows, go to Start>>Run.. and type in CMD then press enter. enter "ipconfig /flushdns" without quotes. Also, if you're using a static DNS in your router, switch them up. My ISP had a bad router.

Thanks for the reply. I am using Hostmonster, LInux. Do you think my problem may be different from yours? What do you recommend?
