High transfer host (1TB+) which allows proxies?

    I just bought 3 proxy websites without realizing how much transfer they use. One is using 3GB in 300 uniques (40,000 impressions) so far today, my current web host only allows 50GB transfer per month.

    Can somebody recommend to me a web host with high transfer who won't ban me for having proxy websites. If I can't find a good host I guess I'll have to sell the websites or something! My current hosting won't last much longer. >_<

    Id go dedicated to be honest mate. 3GB in 300 uniques is crazy. I was going to run a proxy service for adult videos and then realised that 1GB per 10 visitors per day is a bit too much even for my dedicated server.

    Damn, I don't think the websites are making enough revenue to cover a dedicated server. :p

    I'd suggest just dumping the sites. I have a proxy web-site but I've only run it off my home server which just uses my internet connection. There's no way I'd pay to have a proxy site hosted. The amount of resources needed for so few people is just rediculous.

    And its not like you're providing some worthwhile service. You're just helping people look at porn and MySpace.

    I paid for them only 1 day ago. :(

    They've made me $1 so far today...but I have no idea how to keep them running once my transfer runs out.

    that anhosting site allows proxies? you're gonna need to find a host that is cool with the amount of resources that these proxies are probably using. try managemybox.com, they look like they might be worth a shot =) if you do go with them, let me know how it works out.
