I agree about Godaddy.. they have some really dumb motherfuckers answering tech support there.
You know.. the kind where you write a long email detailing what was wrong.. they obviously DON'T read it and tell you to do something you already said you tried in the email.
... then they kick it up a level and you wait 2 weeks for someone with a brain to get back to you.
