Possible actions include warnings, account suspension or cancellation, and civil or criminal legal action, depending on the seriousness of the attack.

Prohibited Activities:

Unsecured form to mail scripts, such as Matt Wright's formmail script, are likewise prohibited as are any naming variant of generic form to mail scripts (formmail.*, Formmail.*, FormMail.*). Unsecured form to mail scripts found to exist under any client account may be deleted or renamed at the discretion of Simply Web Services.

The weblog software Greymatter is not permitted on our servers. Filtering is performed on all servers to deny access to the scripts Greymatter utilizes due to the resource issues created by those scripts.

Web proxy scripts are prohibited. This includes any script, such as nph-proxy, that allows anyone to browse to a third party web site from any server in our network. Such scripts will be deleted when found. Repeated violations will result in account suspension or termination.

Unsolicited Email (Spam)
Commercial advertisements with e-mail unsolicited commercial advertisements are not allowed in e-mail, and will likely result in account suspension or cancellation. Commercial advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet discussion groups and on most e-mail mailing lists. Inappropriate posting may result in account suspension or cancellation. See the newsgroup or mailing list's charter for whether advertising is allowed or not. "Spamming," or sending a message to many different off-topic newsgroups, is particularly unethical and will be treated as such. Sending a message, especially an advertisement, to more than five or six recipients, is by itself spamming unless the individuals have specifically requested to be added to a mailing list on that topic. E-mail is a person-to-person medium, not a broadcast medium. Upon your first Spam offense your mail will be disabled for 72 hours. Upon your second Spam offense your entire domain will be disabled for 72 hours and you will be fined $100.00 per sent Spam. Upon your third offense your account with Simply Web Services will be terminated, you will be fined $200.00 per sent Spam. No refunds will be given if your account is terminated for Spam.

Chat Rooms
We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms and BLOGS, without approving it with Simply Web Services. Most chat rooms and BLOGS tend to be large system hogs and we cannot allow it as an account option. However, we do provide a choice of Java chat rooms for a small extra charge that will more than fill your needs and run without hindering the performance of the machine for others. Note: Parachat chat rooms do not apply to this rule. They are perfectly fine to install.

Abuse of SMTP Mail Server
We do not allow clients send more than 2500 pieces of e-mail per day. If you do send more than 2500 pieces of e-mail per day, your account will be placed on hold for Network Abuse. If you are sending legitimate e-mails and they total more than 2500 per day your account will be moved to a special server that is specifically designed to handle high volumes of e-mail. There is a monthly charge associated with this move to the new server, in addition to your regular hosting charges if your account is moved to this server. Please contact Simply Web Services to have your domain moved.

Background Running Programs
We may allow programs to run continually in the background. These are considered on a one-to-one basis and an extra charge will be incurred based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed.

IRC
We currently do not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our servers.

This policy does not apply to any additional services such as overages, referrer logs, real audio/video, additional disk space, additional pop accounts, etc. Due to security concerns, all account cancellations must be done via email and followed up with a phone call.
