It's seems ok. But be aware of the actual ip address they assign to you when you sign up. The best way to find out your ip address is to use Firefox, and install the addon called "Show IP"

Their ip address is 70.86.228.149, and it checks out fine. But if they assign a different ip address for your site, you'll want to run a check on it and verify if it's on a "blocked/banned list of ip addresses". A great tool to have (for security reasons), and to verify ip addresses in general, is to use PeerGuardian 2. You can get it at http://methlabs.org - It's FREE

Hope that helps.

Hi Walkman,

Where do you like to test I.P. addresses for being Blocked/Ban? I would like to direct my clients and site visitors to follow your advice and test before signing on the dotted line!

There is no place needed to test banned ip addresses. This is all done in real time.

Just look for my thread, which I'll post real soon (in a day or so), which explains all you need to know about blocking ip addresses. It's very simple, easy, and effective. And most importantly..........It works.

Just watch for my thread.
