What type of insurance is required of web hosting providers... and/or any ecommerce internet site. Do major insurance companies provide special insurance just for internetters?

Thanks.

I contacted a business insurance broker (a couple of them actually), explained to them what I wanted, what services I offer, and what kind of protection I needed. They went away for a week or two and came back with a proposal. I found that while many big insurance companies do have specialised IT insurance - they didn't want to talk to me directly about it.

It may of course be a different story where you are located. :)

Was the price reasonable?
