website

I have a small website that crashes once or twice a week.

I have spoken to both the websites original designers, who has now retired and its host and both blame the other.

The website can be recovered by simply renaming a .dll file on the server which effectively reboots the website/application.

Is there a script or something that can be set to automatically rename a file at specific intervals?
