Let me find you the # for cyberwings...

Right here, I wonder if he's been released yet?

It's a shame he hasn't served any time for web hosting fraud (yet).

Why is he such a popular one? There are thousands of people who do that. Did the law just catch up with him?

Long story, search Google and the AT forums for CyberWings.com or CEO Shawn J White.

Bastard owes me $29.50 !!!!

You might want to look into changing from phpbb -- there are lots of exploits right now taking advantage of it. Several hosts have had to take some rather extreme actions (including suspending accounts) to protect themselves from these problems.

I'm glad you mentioned this as I'm seriously considering using SMF from now on.

Also check out Telnap.com

I've used both web hosts for over a year, no problems so far (knock on wood).

I've had HostPC.com since October (per a RossMan recommendation then) and have been happy with them.

They are also very proactive on security issues.
