Your web-page-support stuff also looks pretty cool. How's your uptime? Do you have any clients who use Phil Greenspun's Uptime service, or something similar, that I could use to see how many outages you have a month? You say you prohibit spamming, which is good. Does that mean I can shut down any Hurricane Electric domain by filing a false spam complaint? Similarly for copyright violations. You say that all data stored or transmitted must be legal under all applicable US laws. Can I shut down a Hurricane Electric domain by threatening to file a copyright lawsuit? How many customers do you have? I see that you support all kinds of wonderful things, like PHP, FrontPage, SSI, and CGI. Do you support FastCGI (other than through fcgi.cgi)? How often do you get cracked? How many machines do you have? What OSes are they running? (I don't want to crack you -- I'm just curious whether they're something lousy or something great.) Do you do referer logging? I like to see who's linking to me. If I were to register a domain with the InterNIC and have you host the web site, and then later move it to somewhere else, there wouldn't be an interruption-of-DNS problem while the InterNIC uses its patented Slug-Based Computer to update their DNS records -- right? Do you charge extra if I want extra DNS records for my domain, like a few A records? How long have you been in business?
