And no, that's not an oxymoron ;)

Looking for a shared W2K, ASP, SQL Server along with common ASP components (ASPUpload, ASPMail, ASPImage, etc...) and ability to perform online CC transactions. Willing to pay for reliability and support. Bonus would be a search engine supporting full text searches of Hebrew data in SQL Server.

This will be for a business site with an online auction I am building (so don't need a storefront/catalog system). However I do need some sort of COM object that allows me to process credit cards online in realtime with the merchant's existing merchant account. The merchant is willing to switch to a different merchant account provider/bank to get a better discount rate and online transaction and reporting capabilities.

Any recommendations for a host? I've come across the following, but haven't found enough information on all of them. You thoughts/experiences - pros/cons - other suggestions?

Brinkster (http://www.brinkster.com/) (Redundant web servers!!! Cool!!!)
Verio (http://www.verio.com/) (a little pricey but worth it if rock solid)
MaximumASP (http://www.maximumasp.com/) (They seem fanatical and thorough about their one plan)
ORCSWeb (http://www.orcsweb.com/) (Seem very knowledgeable about MS web development)
ECUI (http://www.ecui.com/) (Lots of components)
Innerhost (http://www.innerhost.com/) (Seen some good things on the boards)
Others?

Most of these hosts impressed me with their packages and support for ASP.NET B2 which suggested to me a commitment, if not competency, to MS technology. Thanks,
