That is an option many of have been looking into, in our desperation, and at 
least one major hosting service, hosting a few dozen mods, has actually taken 
that route somewhat successfully - but it would really suck if the only way to 
host Goldsrc mods was basically to become criminals, and other hosts are 
reluctant to take up such methods for that very reason.

Plus, just figuring out how to do that can be an epic adventure - one often 
involving a lot of Russian translation services and interestng viruses. ;)

Additionally, updates are coming in so hard and fast right now, it's hard for 
the hackers at RevEmu and Dproto to keep up - and there's always the risk that 
Valve may actively seek to disable them, and win the battle, killing the HL1 
modding community, that spawned so many of its most popular modern titles, for 
good.
