I ran across Prohosting in June of 2001 and liked the listed Unlimited packages. I called them and went over my needs in 3GB storage and would that be a problem. I was told that 3GB would not be a problem so I began uploading my files.

I got everything uploaded and working and then I received an email stating that what I had uploaded constituted an "archive".

What is an archive I asked and was given an example: storage of large amounts to be downloaded by my clients. I told the person none of my files were downloadable they were music files for my customers to listen to and then call with an order. I have no files for download like photos or music.

Finally, after they looked at my site I was given the go ahead but that I could not come back and upload more files requiring additional storage space.

I have been paying the $99.00/month for 6 months and just received an email stating that I an over the allotted storage. I should remove files to get back in compliance or pay for the additional storage.

Prohosting has since changed their packages and the unlimited package now states a 1500 MG limit.

I wrote them in response to the email but the bottom line is remove files or pay the additional $ 75.00/month.

I plan to move my files to another host as I cannot trust them.

Beware if you spend lots of time setting up your site you could be notified that you will have to upgrade or downsize.
