It might also be helpful to you if you tried doing a search of the forums using the search tool for previous comments posted about *******.
Good luck.

From doing a search it looks as if they have had a lot of down time, but that appears to be before the got a new datacenter. So I wonder how its been since then?

Avoid ******* at ALL COSTS. We've had the misfortune of using these people to host our Hostcharge.com websites whereas we could have hosted ourselves. I wont get into details, but their customer support is truely pathetic, they lie a lot, their datacenter is mediocre.
When our HostCharge.com server went down, these pathetic people couldn't even reboot our box, and it took ages for them to do it eventually. They installed an outdated version of Apache which was the core of the problems to my knowledge. Luckly the server which crashed had only our websites and nothing senstive. Regardless to say we're pulling out of ******* and hosting ourselves as planned.
Ed and Jimmy and the rest of the crew at wow may have good intentions but their knowledge of software, network and hardware is apalling. If you need more details, free feel to email me at AsherSaeed@aol.com.
This is just my 0.02c, i guess there may be *some* satisfied ******* clients who might flame me, but I seriously dont care, this company should be avoided at all costs.
Regards,
Asher.

Well they just junkmailed us offering 'great deals' so have been added to our 'businesses we won't do business with' list. They have their own datacenter? ******* traces to Verio.
