KOMAPA, you need to ask your hosting company for the reason why they changed. If I am assuming right, you are trying to say they chmod to 000 which would mean no access whatsoever. I cannot think of a reason why they would do that. You need to get more details from them. They owe you an explanation that YOU can understand.

Let us know what they say. Try to get it in writing so you can post any salient details here if you are unsure of something.

They told me:

Good Lord, if they really did do this, which would not shock me anymore, You need a NEW host. That is rediculous. I wish you luck. Let us know how things fair for you.

So I guess your host doesn't like the load that phpNuke is taking on their server? I wouldn't be surprised, esp on a shared server.

I'd get a new host, because phpNuke is database intensive. It is obviously going to take more resources than your host wants to allow
