I have used GoDaddy myself, with excellent results. I never had any problem with "Auto Renewal" either. The one time I had a technical problem, I was able to reach tech via phone immediately and received excellent service. I was impressed. The technician spoke real English. This is not a racist remark. I just cannot usually understand what these service technicians from India are saying clearly. Matthew recommended a French company. That is fine as long as they either offer support in English, or you speak French. Little things like this mean a lot. I had a friend who got involved with a German comp[any, a totally different issue than this one. He doesn't speak German and had one hell of a time getting anyone there who spoke English. Just my 2ยข. -- Jerry
