BitTraffic Status

Dear Clients,

Over the past 3 days there have been several system crashes and reboots on the stamina.bittraffic.com system. We had to setup a logging method to catch the culprit. Doing so we have discovered the following;

This clients account has been terminated for this abuse and causing these recent issues. We greatly apologize for the effect it has had on other users on the system. Anyone caught running perl bots without permission could have their service suspended or terminated. Its very critical that clients respect their hosting environment. We offer excellent services and cut clients a lot of slack anywhere we can. If you are unsure about certain software please check with us before running anything. Thank you all for your understanding.
