How do you get the site going again?  I used to have similar issues when I had a bad hard-drive and I could get the site going by recycling the AppPool in IIS.  I ended up changing the hard-drives in the server and got stability again.  It was a long time ago, so my memory is unclear, but I remember detaching a database and moving it to a different location, reattaching and my problems went away for a while.

I don't... it's hosted at PowerDNN so they are the ones that fix it. Although honestly, when I report it doing this, it's usually working properly again before they have a chance to examine it.
