But I see that back on 6/9 you had the same problem where your tables were dropped, which leads me to believe that you may be doing something, whether you realize it or not, that causes your tables to be dropped. There isn't a typical MySQL server problem that would cause your tables to drop...worst case scenario is usually a table becoming corrupt, which is easily repairable. But *all* tables dropped twice in one month - I'm going to go out on a limb and say you need to examine how you are managing your database. You have a problem somewhere.

either you are mistakingly are doing something, or you haven't got security enabled on you MYSQL Database, and someone is deleting it for you.. If your sure your not deleting anything, you might want to check your security on your phpmyadmin directory, and make sure its password protected.

If you haven't got it protected, and need help, there is an excellent tuturial here... (http://help.powweb.com/tutorials/htaccess/passprotect.php)

Hope that helps.. ;)
