Web sites serviced by Web hosting and domain registrar Go Daddy were back online early this evening after being down for much of the work day, a company spokeswoman told CNET.

"All services are restored and at no time was sensitive customer information, such as credit card data, passwords, names, addresses, ever compromised," Go Daddy spokeswoman Elizabeth Driscoll said in a phone interview just before 5 p.m. PT. She said the company does not know at this time exactly what caused the outage and she couldn't say exactly how many sites were affected.

We've noticed issues with their DNS server the last few days...

I am glad to see godaddy at least made a public announcement and acted in a professional manor.

The apparent hacker responsible also didn't deny anything. Posts were on this person's twitter page about it, an unknown twitter account.
