Well, it was more of a mental list, but here's what I asked of my last host before going with them.
Does the size of the mysql database count towards the normal diskspace allowance? If not, is there a max size for the database? Is spam-assassin installed/supported? fastCGI? Is it possible to upload my site / setup email addresses before the domainname transfered? Also, there would have been other questions in my mind that were already answered by looking at the hosts' website, such as SSH access to error_log and access_log access to disk space outside of the public_html folder installed c compiler sufficient diskspace space to build my own perl if necessary suExec CGI - so that scripts run under my username - means I can set my database password file to only readable by me virtual SSL - e.g. https://mydomain.myhost.com - does this hit my own public_html and cgi-bin folders, rather than having to duplicate all the files on another machine. real POP3 boxes - also, are the usernames (before the @) shared with all the other domains on the server (sorry, 'sales' user already exists!) is bandwidth incoming + outgoing, or the larger of the 2 mysql version Of course, one must comprimise sometimes! I think a bigger issue for the less-experienced is the quality of technical support. A mailing list you can join, or a forum you can read, to see how they deal with things before signing up is invaluable. Also, regarding the Original Poster's issue, I think what I would have to do is, figure out whether this (IE bug) was fixed in a particular apache release, and make sure the host is running that.
