because after several years of experience...they realize the quality of service & security protection offered for $9.99 on a box shared by 300 other people can never come close to that of a machine with one user

it is nearly impossible to completely secure a virtual box....

300 customers means 300x the port scans, 300x the cpu load, 300x the scripts being run, & therefor 300x more back doors & programming errors on a user level + 300x more the chance of stability being at risk

when you run a business sometimes you have to leverage cost of operation, with minimizing risks & find a suitable middle ground

that being said...it seems the site causing you issues is codecsoft.com, using anondns.org & hosting out of texas.......not webair

probably a cross site scripting attack...as i find no reference in your code, but i only did a brief overview

fucking everyone jumping on the nutsack of a large company because its been popular lately....you guys crack me up, their a fucking hosting company....not a military installation protecting nuclear secrets

every host out there suffers from these problems....its just not every company has 15,000 clients & $9.99 accounts....so your view is way skewed.
Very well said.
