    Using a shared account as a backup/storage device is not permitted, with the exception of one cPanel backup of the same account. Please do not take backups of your backups.
    Examples of unacceptable material on all Shared and Reseller servers include:
    
        * Topsites
        * IRC Scripts/Bots
        * Proxy Scripts/Anonymizers
        * Pirated Software/Warez
        *[COLOR="Red"][B][U] Image Hosting Scripts (similar to Photobucket or Tinypic)[/U][/B][/COLOR]
        * AutoSurf/PTC/PTS/PPC sites
        * IP Scanners
        * Bruteforce Programs/Scripts/Applications
        * Mail Bombers/Spam Scripts
        * Banner-Ad services (commercial banner ad rotation)
        * [B][U][COLOR="Red"]File Dump/Mirror Scripts (similar to rapidshare)[/COLOR][/U][/B]
    ... 
    Code (markup):
    My friend have a website to post his Hotfile links and others for upload his own picture. Now, hostgator add new TOS, do not allow both :(
    Do you know any other hosting or VPS accept all with a cheap price ?

    No. Bluehost don't accept adult materials.

    Maybe your friend was hosting adult material that's why hostgator does not allow him to use their server?

    To my knowledge, HostGator does allow adult content.

    yeah, it right!
    Thank you very much, I found a new VPS service with cheapest price: 8$ /1 (including coupon) or 50$/month, allow all :D
