I have this self-developed utitlity (about 1MB in size) and would like to hear from the board members as to where should I host this application. The server should be fast and stable. I tried hosting my site (and the app) at f2s but they delete the app every week or so. I guess its hogging their bandwidth.

What's the matter, f2s? Chicken!? Come on, you're a rich enough company, you should be able to afford something like this!

It might help if we knew what this "APP" was so we could help you locate the best provider to host it.

Who provides your internet access? Usually you get webspace with an ISP.

Well my ISP only offers 1MB of space and I need around 2-5MB. Say this myspace.com banner, any idea how they are?

Yes, and Tripod is rich up to its ears and has millions of members.. they won't check up on your app to see how much bandwidth it's using.

Another BIG advantage to Tripod is that they're FAST AS HELL! HTTP and FTP both are blazing. The only downside you'll encounter is the page that says "This file is hosted on tripod".
