          yesterday when i clicked the link from awi it too a year to load,now it loads fast. Their prices look too low, if you're gonna use them ask them to tell you some high traffic sites they host.

            What's the deal with this being the code that loads up 1st before redirecting...

            HTML
            HEAD
            TITLE sniffer /TITLE
            META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="4;URL=home.html"
            /HEAD
            BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
            !-- URL's used in the movie-- !-- text used in the movie--
            /BODY
            /HTML
            ÿ
            That doesn't look to professional.

            {I tried using the special vB "code" tags but they didn't work.}

                    colo.fm is efreeservers.com, just a different name. And no, they are not hosting.fm They are however located in the same building that Hosting.FM was in. Its the exchange colocation facility in SF.

                    FYI, Hosting FM was not what it was made out to be in that article.

                          The post by Ray was unfortunate. He has been paid the $700, sent his GBIC and agreed to post a message with some info for you. You'll see it soon.

                          Thanks for your research efforts, but you that post was pretty off target, which is why I got so pissed off about it. I'll choose to not say much more until you here from Ray.

                                You didnt answer the question
                                So why change your name and run then?

                                answer that


                                You think anyone here will give any money to host them?

                                  OK, here is what happened. SPAM was sent out over the weekend and it caused a lot of problems for our upstream. They got pissed and shut us off. I was in Florida when I got the phone call that we where being shut off. It was definately the worst day of my life.

                                  The day we got shut off, I did not know what to do. I answered the phone and told customers what had happened and gacve them 2 options. One was to wait and see what happens and the 2nd was to move their servers. Only 2 customers decided to move imediately and the rest waited till Monday.

                                  I got back in town and got a temporary connection for our business which helped us hold on to most of our customers. We lost 4 customers in total, however all but 1 of those would have stayed if we worked out the problem. I truly think the customers did not want to leave.

                                  So over the next day, we fixed all our problems and where back in business. The main outage was almost 2 days. We did however stay in contact witrh our customers.

                                  All though this may not make the story as interesting as you want it to be, there was no FBI, no police and nothing to exciting that happened. We basically had a major problem and dealt with it. As fopr the FBI, they showed up in the same facility around that Tuesday and confiscated all of computer rages equipment. That is where there was some confusion. They where not doing anything with us. A company xxxhostit.com was with Computer Rage when this all happened and the lost all their servers and data. We helped them get back up.

                                  Finally, the name change was a business decision, not an attempt to hide from anything. We have not done anything wrong and all of our customers are very happy.

                                  And yes, the servers are free if you buy 1000 GB or more at $.50/Gig. Dual 1 GHz PIII, Dual 60 GB IBM Hard Disks, and 1 GB RAM.

                                  We setup webmasters and business owners with reliable service and cut their costs in half most of the time. Satisfaction Guaranteed!

                                  BTW: Ray got paid his $700 today and his GBIC goes in the mail on Monday.

                                        Yeah right, 0.5 USD per GIG without extra dedicated server costs.

                                        We wouldn't even be able to pay our tech's if we'd charge 0.5 USD per gig ;-)

                                              haha mike_z usually I don't judge somebody on the number of posts he has, but you're definately a newbie

                                              I know somebody that will sell a 100mbps connection for 5c on his DSL connection, but I won't tell you who it is!!

                                                SR, for 10 MBps flat and 1 server:

                                                $800 for 10 MBps
                                                $200 for the server

                                                $1000/Mo

                                                You'll also get a control panel for your server where you can remotely reboot it, check bandwidth, and monitor your hardware performance.

                                                And in response to "DualCPU," we probably do some of the things you probably don't.

                                                #1 We manufacture our own server cases and purchase parts directly from IBM, Intel, Tyan, Samsung, and a few other companies. I can build a Dual CPU, Dual 60GB Disks, 1GB RAM, plus a 300 Watt powersupply for under $1000. This means we are saving money and passing it on to our customers.

                                                #2 We provide our customers with up to date information on their servers from a web browser. We also have a remote reboot feature. Our customers probably call our 24/7 phone, email, and ICQ support lines a lot less then they would call yours.

                                                #3 Bandwidth is inexpensive for us because we buy a lot. I could cut my prices in half and still make money. Do you think it is right that a lot of hosting companies sell bandwidth for 50 times what they pay for it?

                                                So basically, the prices are good for good reasons and we can honor these prices to anyone. I could probably save you quite a bit of money.

                                                    but of course you found 100mbps unlimited for $900... that's out of question... hell, i'm even sure that it's $90 but you just don't want us to die from jealousy and was noble enough to multiply the price by a factor of ten...

                                                        I already told you why, you can go find the post and read it again if you like.

                                                        It is the 17th post down on this thread:

                                                        http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...threadid=50717
                                                        This is a copy of my post on another thread, but I put it here for Mariuz, who does not know much about me.

                                                        I am not quite sure why you choose to chase me around on the boards, but I have a lot of happy customers. You chose to read a post from one unhappy customer who has now been paid and is happy again.

                                                        If you want to know more about the real me, I have been doing Internet stuff for almost 5 years, I started out as a webmaster for Fox Racing and Shift, worked as a Director at Galaxy Net (ISP), then I started my own ISP with a co-worker.

                                                        I now live in a million dollar home in La Jolla, with a 540i and a sweet R1 in the garage that I got from providing people with good service. I have worked hard to get where I am your posts show that you have no idea who I am or what I do. Funny thing is, I've been to a lot of adult shows in Vegas and if you where at any of them, I might have even met you.

                                                        Mariuz, if you live in the area, you should stop by. You can even call me if you want. 408-209-8949. I woudl just appreciate it if you stopped chasing me around the boards.

                                                              Thanks for the advice, but I will just continue on with my life. If you find it entertaining to go around and point fingers, enjoy yourself.

                                                              And Dual CPU, the fact that I have a good life serves as a symbol of the work I did to get there. I know if you have a mercedes and a chauffeur, you obviously are doing something right.

                                                              Most of the shit on that post Maruiz keeps showing to people is BS. The only thing I am guilty of is having a customer who spammed and caused me to get shut down for a couple days. Did you find anything else I am missing? I dont think that makes me a terrible person or a bad business man.
