There are good hosting companies and there are bad ones. With the latter one, you can expect all kind of weird things, but what they did to us yesterday is unheard of. They configured a pizza site to our IP number. Pizza guys just uploaded their site and overwrote ours! Our domain suddenly became a pizza site! After contacting our hosting company I got this:
Due to a configuration error, your site was hooked up to the wrong IP. Please reupload it to the ip number below. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you.
They were hooked up to the wrong IP, not us, you moron! We've used that IP number for a couple of months now! After a couple of trouble tickets and a couple of unanswered questions, I decided to call them, but the customer support guy just put the phone down after I explained him who I am and why I call about. He didn't answer the next time I called. I am really upset now, and you be careful when choosing a host. I am not going to use their service anymore and I am not going to recommend them as I did in the past.

We can talk about that when we see each other. You can explain it to me in more detail, because I am not an expert (read dummy) in this kind of things.
