A forum or a site?

This site uses around 300GB of bandwidth per month and 5GB of space.

The forum uses around 5-10GB of that bandwidth and around 1MB not including the mySQL database. If you need assistance for hosting, OldVersion.com is a solution. Not only do we provide you with quality hosting, you would be helping the site.

It was because of it's lack of security. But, I recovered and reestablished all clients pages and data, and patched the server up with firewalls and other security patches. The server wasn't hacked because of the content, but because it could be used for other things. If you have AIM, PM it to me or post, or ICQ, Y!, MSN or anything. I don't like email :P
