CI host has had lots of bad press in the past with their systems being down and lack of service.
I knew this webdesigner, Siobhan O'Brien... and she had several sites hosted with CI on her server. They had some big problems....and the sites were down for quite a while.
She couldn't even reach anyone there at the time, it was a nightmare for her and she almost lost her business as a result. I believe she is still spearheading a class action lawsuit against them.
If you visit this page:
http://www.coolballs.com/coollinks/news.htmlIt's one of her sites that was affected..... it's their "in the news page"... scroll down a bit til you see the MSN News Section.
You might want to learn all you can about them. I wouldn't know a thing were it not for knowing Siobhan... she made national news with her plight.

http://www.evolvedsites.com/cichat/I know she would answer any specific questions you might have.
Maybe this is all old news... but always good to do the R&D and check it all out.
I just have heard the saga up close and personal from her (she was a client of mine) and her clients (who had also become clients of mine).
