no feedback on how it happened, however regarding backups...

depending on your provider and service level you might also want to 
supplement their backup routine with your own.  Once a month full 
backups and irregular incremental backups are common - and this isn't 
good enough.  Requesting backups takes time as does having them do the 
work.  For this reason I run a daily cron backup job on my sites using a 
database.  The backup files get named for the day, so it's easy to get a 
fast restore if necessary.  I remove very old backup files (except for 
perhaps one per month) once I feel comfortable. -Bob
