  7. Resource Usage

    User may not:

    1. Use 25% or more of system resources for longer then 90 seconds.There are numerous activities that could cause such problems; these include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc.
    2. Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point intime on the server. This includes any and all daemons, such as IRCD.
    3. Run any type of web spider or indexer (including Google Cash / AdSpy) on shared servers.
    4. Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network.
    5. Run any bit torrent application, tracker, or client. You may link to legal torrents off-site, but may not host or store them on our shared servers.
    6. Participate in any file-sharing/peer-to-peer activities
    7. Run any gaming servers such as counter-strike, half-life, battlefield1942, etc
    8. Run cron entries with intervals of less than 15 minutes When usingPHP include functions for including a local file, include the local file rather than the URL. Instead of include("http://yourdomain.com/include.php") use include("include.php")

    7b.) INODES

    The use of more than 50,000 inodes on any shared account may potentially result in suspension. Accounts found to be exceeding the50,000 inode limit will automatically be removed from our backup system to avoid over-usage. Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc) on your account uses up 1 inode.

    Sites that slightly exceed our inode limits are unlikely to be suspended; however, accounts that constantly create and delete large numbers of files on a regular basis, have hundreds of thousands of files, or cause file system damage may be flagged for review and/or suspension. The primary cause of excessive inodes seems to be due to users leaving their catch all address enabled, but never checking their primary account mailbox. Over time, tens of thousands of messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and choose "Mail", then"Default Address", "Set Default Address", and then type in: :fail: No such user here.

  8. Bandwidth Usage

    You are allocated a monthly bandwidth allowance. This allowance varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your account pass the allocated amount we reserve the right to suspend the account until the start of the next allocation, suspend the account until more bandwidth is purchased at an additional fee, suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package, terminate the account and/or charge you an additional fee for the overage. Unused transfer in one month cannot be carried over to the next month.

  9. Price Change

    The amount you pay for hosting will never increase from the date of purchase. We reserve the right to change prices listed on Nixser.com.my,and the right to increase the amount of resources given to plans at any time.

  10. Indemnification
