I'm having to deal with a very trying situation with my current Host Provider concerning my Board (v. 6.4.1). They have disabled my Board for what they claim is unacceptably high resource usage. This is the 3rd time they have done this and each time having made no changes to the script(s), the "abuse" has subsided and the Board was restored.

1) The Board sees very little activity, e.g., 3-5 concurrent members logged on.
2) I've added a "robots.txt" file to prevent any indexing of the Board by search engines.

The latest abuse message from the Host Provider reads as follows:

Quote
Hi, Recently your account was utilizing excessive resources. Details are as follows: A detail of the problem is shown below as: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (domain & IP) Top Process %CPU 13.6 httpd [the-highway.com] [/forum/stylesheets/nami-grad.css] Top Process %CPU 12.0 /usr/bin/php /home/thehi15/public_html/forum/showthreaded.php Top Process %CPU 10.0 /usr/bin/php /home/thehi15/public_html/forum/showprofile.php CPU - 9.82 Memory - 2.44 mySQL - 0.6
I've had someone check some of this who is very knowledgeable of UBBThreads and my Board specifically and he can't see why the problem exists re: the scripts.

I am looking for some ideas on how to proceed at this point. To say the least, this is very aggravating and frustrating. It would be a shame to have to abandon things after 14 years of being online.

Thanks,

Jeff
