If it's an issue you might be able to throttle the bandwidth, to limit the
number of people who can visit.

You could get a managed dedicated server, or a shared one with plenty of
bandwidth allowance.

Hi Anthony,

I think the idea of a managed dedicated is a good one. I will be leaving my
hosting company when the contract runs out, they told me their severs where
based in the UK, but I found a tool mentioned today on the list, and when I
use it, it showed me that they are in th USA NY...

So they lied and I want out, but i've signed a twelve months contract with
them....
