</span> I run a website for a hiking club. One day, that got deleted. I re-uploaded thing from my home computer and I complained to the server. They replied "Oh, you have got it back up again!" That was the closest I got to an explanation. Obviously, the moral of this is that anything maintained on and uploaded from your computer, can easily be recovered if something happens on the server.<br>
