so as you can see, the 'unlimited bandwidth' is once again called out and proven to be a tactic, because the unknowing would fall for such.

now i continued on my quest with this and read their TOS as suggested from the sales agent, and this is what i have found:


20. System and Network Resource Usage
An Individual Shared, Premium or Reseller Hosting account may not:

1. Use 25% or more of system resources for longer than 90 seconds. There are numerous activities that could cause such see more problems; these include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc.
2. Run any type of interactive real-time chat applications that require server resources. Remotely-hosted services are fully allowed.
3. Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point in time on the server. This includes any and all daemons, such as IRCD.
4. Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network.
5. Run any BitTorrent application, tracker, or client.
6. Run any type of web spider or indexer (including Google Cash / AdSpy)
7. Participate in any file-sharing/peer-to-peer activities
8. Run any gaming servers such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Battlefield 1492, etc.
9. Run cron entries with intervals of less than 15 minutes.
10. When using PHP include functions for including a local file, include the local file rather than the URL. Instead of include("http://yourdomain.com/include.php") use include("include.php")

PacificHost hosting accounts operate on shared resources. Excessive use or abuse of these shared system and network resources by one customer may have a negative impact on all other customers. PacificHost reserves the right to suspend or terminate any hosting account deemed to adversely affect server performance or network integrity.
