Spending a better part of my morning frantically backing up Candied Pop, which is hosted by 1&1, as the site appeared to be in a downward spiral. After a call to their tech support I found out that the database hosting was the issue and that “it is being looked into.” As of now the site is slowly coming back to life, albeit sluggishly, and hopefully by noon it will be 100%. It is times like these that I wish I had the cash to burn for some high speed line to the home so I could self-host it all.

“it is being looked into.” did they ever tell you what the problem was?
Turns out that the db host had some servers go down and the load balancing went all to hell. Things seem to have been solid since.
