An anonymous reader shares a report: A ransomware infection has crippled the operations of a US-based web hosting provider for almost eight days now, several of the company’s disgruntled customers have told ZDNet today. Impacted are all Windows-based servers owned by A2 Hosting, a provider of virtual private servers (VPS) and WordPress hosting services. The infection, which took place last week on April 23, has led to a week-long downtime that A2 staff has struggled to fix, leading to an unending stream of complaints and desperate pleas for help from customers bleeding money with each passing day of downtime.
