I think its safe to say that you never expect the worst after a few hours , even days
unless theres something official on their site / forum that we saw with someimage.
Sometimes bad things happen a server or 2 and stuff is down
A few hosts have moved their servers in the past with no mention that they were doing it
Personally i wont go near
P & H because I know from this thread its not fully available in at least 6 countries
When they stuff up they do it better than most
I wont use imagevenue any longer to upload to because it requires the security nightmare plugin adobe flash.That and the fact I find their entire set-up cumbersome when you get too many galleries.40 pages worth is where I'm stopping.
The smartest thing I've seen said of late is if your going to run risky plugins use them in a stand alone browser that you just use for uploading content
Its the general browsing where these plugins can become a nigthmare because patches take time to plug exploits - browsers like the popular firefox dont update their plugins automatically from what i've read.
Thats a recipe for disaster
