Then you are probably familiar with 1and1's one annoying habit of trying to move you up as they change their packages. I have been fighting them on it for at least 6 years. I fussed over a year before I got "grandfathered" in properly though they kept saying it was O.K. and telling me to choose some options that I never could find.
Then a few months ago, I noticed a difference in my semi-annual payment. I went there the other day and tried to find out what I really was paying for because I knew I had been getting at least 2 free domain names and paying for 2 more but now I don't know how the names are distributed since I notice they are only giving 1 name for free on the packages they list. I need to call call to figure it out.
I have so much space that I let one trustworthy old work friend from back in the day at the company have FTP access to the site, and he used it in his teaching. One time I looked and he had a very early unauthorized beta for Win 7 on it that he had gotten from a student. Many other people in the family have access to directories, with picture galleries, etc.
Never a problem technically except with directory passwords when you change certain things. There is a trick there that does work.
