[SLUG] The "boy" who cried wolf?

I've just got home and turned on my computer, to find it booting up perfectly normally. While I'm very relieved, I'm also at a loss to explain what's happened. I don't see how the problem could have been a hardware or an ISP one, since, as I mentioned before, I was using the same hardware and I
