Yes, 1and1.com is making changes. And Yes, they do not contact anyone that they are working on it so we do not go crazy. I called them and they said they should be done soon.
As soon as I told them I had wordpress installed. I found that I could not get into the backend using login.
Now I have to wait for a 24 to 48 hour period to see if they fix it or I will have to call. Otherwise I may end up doing a work around with a rename or something.
If someone else has an update, I would be glad to hear back.
