As Ross has explained, and I know there are no infringing files held on the server, some noob kid posted a link to the file on rapidshare, Microsoft should report the link to rapidshare and have contacted Ross and his host regarding removal of the comment.
I also believe that the host is to blame, as they should have contacted Ross on this issue before taking the site offline.
It'd be interesting to know whether it was the host or Microsoft request for the site to be taken offline.
