In the end it turned out that in the process I missed a few files, and I wasn't willing to re-transfer it all again, so I just started over. Fortunately, my site wasn't really worth anything at that point, so scrapping it all was actually a pretty good choice.

Do I get the impression that Miss Sabin-Wilson may have personally made the screw-up of which she writes? ;) Being a host myself (<a href="http://www.hazoom.com" rel="nofollow">old company</a> and <a href="http://www.qubeserv.com" rel="nofollow">new one</a>), I can totally appreciate the business of backing up before a transfer! I've dealt with so many people who didn't do it - and ended losing chunks of their sites!
