Glad to see someone willing to take a risk, I wasn't worth giving them
a name, especially when I saw they were out of EU.  I am not suprised
about there restrictions, those are (IMO) pretty regular for cheap
hosting.  The main thing i think they are trying to avoid is spammers.
I curious to how they take payment.....what are the choices?

I've signed up for an account (which is separate from signing up for
hosting) but I've temporarily decided to not sign up for hosting.

First reason:  They require one year payment in advance; $24 is a bit
more of a risk than $2 <smile>.

Second reason, in their "acceptable use" page:

<snip>
Misuse Of Resources
Including but not limited to employing applications which consume
excessive CPU time, memory or storage space. Chat/IRC, web proxy and
mailing list scripts are not allowed on our network under any
circumstances. Streaming media can be a drain on web server resources
and as such is not allowed. CGI based message forums which use flat
file databases are often found to use excessive system resources, to
avoid disappointment please use a PHP/ASP message forum. The use of web
cam applications which maintain a constant FTP connection uploading an
image at regular intervals is forbidden.

So I'm going to think this out.  Any comments?
