Yes, the original issue was a database error with the provider. I still don't know what the issue was. I had access to mysqladmin, so at least mysql seemed to be opperational, but from the site admin stuff, I could not administrate rights to the various databases.
That issues seems to be resolved, I just got off the phone with them (for the 8th time since friday). We seem to have a new issue now. The forum was back up for about 10 minutes this morning, then we started getting 404 errors. Now it is doesn't seem to reconize the .php files as being anything other than a file to download.
PS -- Jess, if you read this, can you e-mail me? I need to talk to you about getting me added as a contact on the hosting account, so that I can get e-mails from them? They keep sending all the information to your fbtransam "at" yahoo account.
Krazzy, If your site is having problems, the best thing to do is CALL them. I found out that Ipowerweb has a crazy system for support. If you do chat support, the can not touch the servers, and their notes are not shared with the call center. If you call in, you can actualy get a help ticket for a server opened. Their first level techs are wankers, so raise hell, and ask for a supervisor right off the bat. I had to really be an arsehole, to get them to do anything, they kept trying to blame the problems on me.
Thanks for the patients guys. I really hope that we finally get the site up and running soon.

John mentioned that in his update earlier. Still working on it.
