I don't pay a penny for any hosting service, its hooked up using ADSL at my folks house and the salery I pay them doesn't cover a 24 hour service!!!!!!!!! Its on my server (now fixed) networked via my router (buggered but being replaced), via Demon ADSL (excellent service). There's never been a performance issue, only dodgy software versions (very recently, now fixed) and shite routers (see above and several earlier announcements).
I am on the case, as I always am. Just bear with me....chill

Cheers
John
