Either someone is bored and is DDoSing the site again or there are issues at the data centre. Sit tight.

I'm not really noticing anything big but it is a little slower.

Edit: Are you sure that somebody didn't cut the orange wire at the data center?

Uploading files would not cause complete loss of connectivity to the server.

Probably load caused by / due to heavy downloading or was it actually some "ddos" ?

What are the server specs by the way if I may ask.

Partially wrong, it's 4GB RAM, not 2. The rest is correct.

I though there was a problem with a ram slot and you had to lose some of the ram

That's the home server for the backups, not the one that runs the site. The server info page also distinguishes between the two: :)

I usually use a *Nix server not a Win* server, I find that *Nix servers are built to handle a bit more than Win* Servers.
