Hi Kurt,

I could only find an VPS forum or an Exchange one, although I should probably have used the Buy - Sell one, which I didn't see until too late

I need it because I've been accepted for the ebay partner program and in order not to have to deal with US taxes, I have to agree not to use any US services for the sites I put ebay on, and that includes hosting services. Otherwise they make me sign all kinds of iffy forms I really don't want to get involved with!

I've used 1and1 in the past and found them very slow .. you're right though, I'd forgotten about them, thanks

Isobel
