Hostgator site disabled due to overuse of CPU resources - need help now

Hostgator has disabled our site for overuse of CPU. Please help us fix the issue.

You need Wordpress skills, database knowledge, scripting skills to delete problematic scripts that are leading to CPU overuse.

Here is a bit of the email we got from hostgator. Will send the whole email whenyou are selected for the job.

This is a quick fix.

Please email your best quote.

From Hostgator....
Your account xxxxx on gatorxxxx.hostgator.com has been overusing CPU resources for an extended period of time and has been disabled in order to ensure continued performance and stability of the server. While we do limit each account to no more than 25% of a systems CPU in our terms of service, we do not actively disable accounts until they greatly exceed that number, which is what happened in this case.

Unfortunately, there is no way of predicting an accounts resource usage in advance. A sudden increase in traffic, a bot crawl, or a change in site activity can cause a site to dramatically increase its resource usage in an instant. When this happens, the servers ability to function properly is jeopardized, and we must, by necessity, restrict the source of the problem to keep the server functioning.

Please take a moment to review this email in full as it contains important information and resources to assist you in resolving this issue. Please note that this permanent restriction requires you take further actions to gain access to and resolve the issues on your account.


-How does a CPU issue occur?
Many times popular scripts may perform inefficient tasks repeatedly leading to CPU overuse.
-How can I rate-limit search engine crawlers?
All major crawlers respect robots.txt to restrict them from crawling certain pages. Additional steps may be needed to limit the rate at which Googlebot and Bingbot craw your site.
