[wp-hackers] Recommendations for an affordable, SECURE, WordPress host

[marka999 at hushmail.com]

The host has no clue what he is doing. Its clear to me know its just a
one man show by someone with no real skills. I should have known
better with how cheap it was, but I needed a host quickly and
inexpensively. This was a case of I got what I paid for. I even
prepaid for a full year because it was such a good deal. BAD MISTAKE.
He won't even give me a prorated refund due to the circumstances.

Moral of the story, STAY AWAY from ideastack.com.

Sounds like that host was vulnerable to the symlink hack. I don't know
this
for a fact, but if accounts are not properly jailed off from each
other,
this is certainly possible.
