I've been getting this webpage appear on my domain for some time.

my domain in: parnmatt.co.uk

I was originally with x10, but because of some trouble I with it not letting me use my own domain.
I then switched to HelioHost because they offered Rails as well as PHP …and well, I left almost immediately because of the amount of down time in such a small period of time. I didn't have a chance to upload my site in-dev. but it did link with my domain, through nameservers.

I moved back to x10 because I know and trust the service here. Even though I changed the nameservers etc. It did seem to be connected to HelioHost, so I waited OVER the 48-hour suggest server transfer, and it's been several days.

I did upload the site and it seemed to be working fine connecting to 'index.html' I then switched my main domain to my personal domain, was having a little trouble but It does seem like my domain is now completely connected back to x10, but it's not displaying 'index.html', instead It's re-directing to 'http://parnmatt.co.uk/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi'

I re-sync'd the website with the version I have on my computer via FTP, and I've still be getting the same redirect …it's been going on for days, and I don't know what to do.

I've deleted all the stupid directories in the 'public_html' directory: all the '_vti*' stuff that only FrontPage uses …I'm a hand-coder on a Mac and sometimes Ubuntu …never going to use them. Only files/folders that I haven't deleted that were initially in there: .htaccess, _private, cgi-bin.

I hope some of this helps into knowing what's going on …and what I can do …or you can do.

Thanks

Matt

It's probably related to the problems described in "Important Update For All Free Hosting Users". An admin could tell you for certain, but they're going to be very busy working on those for awhile. Hopefully, your problem will be fixed at the same time.
