rvalkass 5 Report post Posted February 20, 2011 You don't need a VPS in terms of space, bandwidth or processing power. The complain from Xisto - Web Hosting is that your site appears to breach the terms and conditions of your hosting, as you are hosting illegal phishing content on your website. Being on shared hosting, that puts everyone at risk. If you switch to VPS then you are running your website inside its own separate virtual server, so there is no way your phishing content could affect anyone else's sites. However, I would strongly advise you remove the phishing content as it is against the law pretty much everywhere, and carries a lengthy prison sentence in most countries.

sheepdog 10 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 Boy I hope I never get a message like this about my site! I have absolutly no idea what any of this means. What is VPS?I do understand about phishing, that's scammers trying to get your personal information so they can in some way take advantage of you, right? But say you were starting some kind of club or organization online and requested certain information from people before you let them join, or for that matter, what if I wanted to check information or the background of someone interested in buying a puppy to see if they would be a good pet owner, how could you do any of this without it being considered phishing?
