In more general terms they are turning out to be a disastrous host. Downtime is almost a daily occurrence (several hours yesterday), site stats are a thing of the past and support is of the 'auto pilot' variety. My site got wiped entirely last December when their servers were "compromised". Last year I was with Feature Price when they went belly up and Dot5 seem to be in terminal decline. My growing reputation as a host jinxer makes me wonder whether I should email a big name web host to tell that unless I receive a substantial payment from them I will sign up with them and trigger the inevitable shut down :-) Whatever happens I will not be staying with Dot5 and I strongly recommend anyone considering them to look elsewhere. - --Graham - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
