Re: pgHoster.com woes and looking for a new host

When I first started using them they were great, excellent customer support.
But then one day they disappeared! no response from any emails to any
address on their site or their parent company

I shall be changing to

http://www.hub.org/

When I get the chance. I've heard its good, and one of their main chaps is
very well known around here I believe!
