why dont some hosts allow IRC bots, and servers?

i dont really see any good reason for it... yea they are connected all the time. but a apache service can be running all the time.... irc bots dont take up much bandwidth either.

another argument could be the security. but a not very well comfigured apache (or any other service for that matter) could be exploited just as fast as any irc bot.

anyone recommend any hosts that will allow me to run irc bots?
