 * I don’t want to empty out the database as I’d lose all the posts that have been
   made
 * I haven’t installed any themes or plugins on the new reinstallation as I can’t
   even access wp-admin!
 * As for VevisoEnterprise, a typo is there (left a one off):
    [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/367831](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/367831)(
   which IS only a few hours before my problems, but yes… I do get your point that
   if it is a bug/core issue then you’d see many more, however I still think it 
   is a somewhat odd coincidence)

 * next time you want to use FTP just look for a different ftp client
 * for instance I use the fireftp plugin for firefox
 * which as it works via firefox it will work just sweet on a Mac too 🙂

 * getting very worrying as I’ve now found a total of FOUR people have written about
   more or less exactly the same problem, all in the space of just a few hours:

 * I’ve decided to delete everything on the webserver and and replace it with a 
   fresh wordpress download
 * hopefully this will work? will only need to reupload the a few themes and put
   back the google analytics code
 * that is if I keep my fingers crossed the mysql database is fine and won’t need
   to be fixed, as that is holding all the posts in it :s
 * =========================
 * update: I’ve done a completely clean reinstall from a wordpress downloaded off
   this site only a few minutes ago, yet still I’m getting everything as completely
   blank!

 * cheers! but after I tried that…. I got this (with H1 markup!) at mysite.com:
 * Error establishing a database connection
 * ==============
    edit: I’m a moron! Of course it couldn’t establish a DB connection
   as I changed the mysql password :s
 * But once I fixed that in the configure file it still doesn’t work
