it is not their job to make sure you don't go over, in fact most WANT you to go over so they can charge you more

but IMO it is the professional thing to do, ecspecially since one of the main reason for going over is because of password trading/hacks, so it would be in everyones best interest to keep track of that on all angles

so, yes, i think they should warn you

I have spike monitoring in place on my server, if the bandwidth spikes at a insane rate, i get a automated phone call, an email and an icq
