Regular down time with my hosting company

I have been very happy with my hosting company for a couple of years now but all of the sudden I am having weekly if not daily issues with my site being down for 30 minutes here or an hour there. The hosting company tells me that their servers are being attacked on a regular basis by Russian and Chinese hackers that overload the servers and I believe them but it is slowly going to kill my business. I am not host bashing and prefer to stay where I am but I need a solution to this.

I guess I am just asking if other ZenCart users are having these same experiences and if so what are you doing to keep your site up more consistently. I am running 1.3.8a fully patched at this point until I can be sure that all of the mods I am using are compatible with the 1.3.9b version and then I will switch.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

There is little that you can do about their situation...
It can happen to any server, and they should have a firewall that can help mitigate the attacks.

Thanks Kobra, I know that they are doing what they can but it just gets really frustrating.
