Hey Mike,
Sorry for changing the topic slightly, but I noticed you mentioned your
hosting problems. I've been having major problems of late with the hosts I
use.
I used Cyberhost for most of my sites, but when they sold out to iAsiaWroks
things started to go a bit awry. Then when OzHosting took over, it all went
out the window. I waited nearly six weeks for a site to be setup, and
ended up telling them to go jump.
The guys that started up Cyberhost have apparently started up another
business because a) they heard a lot of complaints from their old clients,
and b) they were unhappy with the way it went after selling out.
Anyway, the upshot is, they are able to offer CF hosting again. The support
I had with them in the past was great, I haven't found many others to be as
responsive. And their prices are affordable.
I'm not selling anything here... I have just been through all these
problems, and I thought I'd mention it to you out of courtesy!
All the best, and good luck with your other problems!!
Nick
