Web Host Without C-Panel
Does anyone know a dependable web host; with: good up time (99% or better), not to expensive ($12 or less per month), PHP 4 & 5 capable, MySQL capable, includes option for phpMyAdmin add-on or comes pre-installed, and does not have C-Panel (that has it's own simple file manager and file editing capabilities)? I am used to using Yahoo Web Hosting's / GeoCities Pro's file manager and I have tried out C-Panel before; I guess I got spoiled by Yahoo file managers, because I really don't much care for C-Panel (although I know a majority of web host use it now). I would stick with Yahoo; but they have been having trouble loading PHP pages for about the past year and a half. So I have been thinking about moving away from their services to another web host, but I want a very simple file manager like Yahoo Web Hosting/GeoCities Pro currently has. If anyone knows of a host that meets my requirements above; please let me know.


Also; I was thinking about going with FastNext, because they have Windows Servers; that have Helm Control Panel. Has anyone ever used Helm and is it more like C-Panel or more like Yahoo type file managers or completely different then either one? Has anyone ever used FastNext; is it a good service?

Cpanel is a leading panel, better to get on with it, almost all panels have similarities and bit of variations.
Most established hosts with linux services should be using cpanel of plesk so I wonder if you can get some good host.

That is why I am probably going to go with a Windows Server Web Host. There seems to be quit a few that does not rely on C-Panel, but Helm instead. I found a demo for Helm and tried it out. I like the Windows interface better then the Linux C-Panel interface. So I probably will go with a host that has a Window's Server. I also tried out Plesk for Windows and I liked it pretty good to; it still seems easier to use, the C-Panel.


Are there pros and cons between using Web Host with Linux Servers vs. Web Host with Windows Servers and if so; are they significant?

Talking about Linux vs Windows security I have found a really good explanation of why Windows servers are less secure,

Quote:
Stiennon starts by saying: "Many millions of words have been written and said on this topic. I have a couple of pictures. The basic argument goes like this. In its long evolution, Windows has grown so complicated that it is harder to secure. Well these images make the point very well".
