    Cracked software / Site design

    Hi, If you have a site designed and the designer is using a cracked version of the designer (a lot of Dreamweaver & Photoshop kiddes about these days), where does that leave you legally with your site design ?

    Anyone tried a Pay As You Go reseller ?

    We've been doing this for a while now thinking that it might be a good thing to help some new hosts get going. Anyone else had any experience or used a similiar service ?

    Overselling

    Just a thought, none of my accounts are oversold, however, I know many hosts do oversell. Maybe this is a bit of a dumb question, but how do you cope if (when) the customer starts to actually use all this "vapour disk & vapor bandwidth" that you've sold them ?

    Spamassin Updates - Dumb question ?

    I got a simple enquiry the other day about Spamassin. Does it update it's rules etc... I've looked in the Cpanel update logs and seen nothing related to it. If it doesn't automatically, can it / should it need to be updated regularly ?

    Refunds

    Fortunately, I've not had to deal with a refund issue (either I'm doing it right or I don't have enough customers to complain - probably the latter !) I understand that the UK Distance Selling legislation requires a "cooling off period" and the customer can legally request a refund. Does this...

    New Cpanel/WHM SSL certificate ?

    I've not got round to it yet, but is there a simple guide to getting a new SSL cert for cPanel/WHM yet ? Mine still has the host.domain.com cert and Windows bleats about it each time. I'd like to suggest my customers use the secure connection to their cpanel, but I guess I'd better sort this...
