I'm pondering entering the mysterious world of windows hosting soon. I was wondering what are your opinions on it. Is there a big market? And are there many issues I should worry about, besides worms and stupid exploits?

There are a lot of factors. There are attacks all the time. To me that is the biggest aspect.

Also, finding a good windows control panel is worth looking into as well. We use Hsphere. You can run others but for Hsphere it didnt cost us extra to run on either Linux or Win.

I try to steer people towards Linux as there are no lic fees for the OS. These can get hefty if a client is requesting say 2003 with all the bells.

Good luck
