Who is your host--ring em up and sort it out.

Or find a new one--quickly.

Or give Marc J a ring as has been suggested.

Someones put a URL redirecter on your site

in answer to your problem i believe that your domain has been parked probably because its registration has run out or failure to renew if you have not been notifyed by your hosting company then this is not very good as you are open to anyone now registering that domain name i would check out your host and as surgested earlier in this thread move it else where.

Looks like its expired!

Missed this one - looks sorted now anyway :)

Even though this is bad when it happens, remember that when your domain expires it doesn't immediately go on the market for anyone else to register it - for some time after your site "dies" only the old registrant will be able to renew it. In the case of .co.uk domains it's usually around 6 months before it is released for registration again. So, if this does happen to you, don't panic :)

Now back in business , the company who had registered my domain , seemed quited surprised that they had missed this and I must say they acted immediately to get it sorted.Have taken a note not to miss this again. Thanks for all the help on this one.
