Yeah, they're the biggens.
The history is that Alabanza used to be a Virtual Hosting service as well as
dedicated. Well, they sold off their virtual hosting clients to
"yourwebhost.com", which is owned by the same person and, they simply
provide dedicated services now.
Many of the Hosting companies that I have found to have great plans were all
Alabanza-hosted companies. I knew a good friend of mine who worked for one
of them. He said the servers they had from them were the most insecure on
the Internet. When they would lock it down, Alabanza would open the hole
again and tell them to stop messing with the server. One day they changed
their root passwords and locked down the server tight (security-wise) They
were given a cease and desist order.
I have heard, however, that they have gotten a little more security
conscience since then.
