Can you say crappy server?

I knew you could. At least you can if you rent a server from 1and1 hosting at 1and1.com. 1and1's servers are the most unreliable servers on the internet. The one I rent has crashed 25 times since the 2nd of February. That works out to around a crash every 3 1/2 days. 1and1's so called tech support claims that you have to prove it's a hardware problem before they'll repair or replace the server. Of course, there's no way to prove it without having physical access to the server. And only they have access to the data center the server is located in.
