Hey, folks -
I did a quick search and didn't turn up any posts yet on this (surprised, however) ... but folks interested in reading an ongoing (and fanatically documented) Web-hosting horror story should steer their browsers to:
Alex Sacui's hell (http://www.gisol.org/)
Summary:
Flash designer builds beautiful animation - naively signs up with "Unlimited Bandwidth / No hidden Charges" Web host... gets massive amounts of traffic, host freaks and reveals "hidden charge" and bills said designer for over $16,000 in bandwidth fees.
Unbelievable!
