The following information regarding ISPs may or may not be helpful: Many ISPs are owned by EIG, the parent company of HostGator and Sitelock, so I’ll be avoiding them. Here is a partial listing of the companies owned by EIG: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endurance_International_Group <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endurance_International_Group>
Some ISPs aren’t owned by EIG but partner with Sitelock; I’m avoiding them, also. https://www.sitelock.com/partner <https://www.sitelock.com/partner> Mine is a WordPress site, and the WordPress people currently recommend four hosts for WP sites: Bluehost (owned by EIG, so they’re out) DreamHost (I’m currently leaning in this direction) Flywheel SiteGround And if interested, postings from other people who have experienced the same problem I mentioned can be seen here — and plenty of other places, but this is a good (if long) summary. I don’t know if the practice described really is extortion, but it sure feels like it. http://www.hermesthemes.com/scam-alert-hostgator-sitelock-malware-extortion/ <http://www.hermesthemes.com/scam-alert-hostgator-sitelock-malware-extortion/> Donna Reynolds _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
