Hello List, I have just received an email from my host. It reads as follows:
Bluehost.com, a sister company of Hostmonster.com, is now offering a public centos mirror at mirrors. Bluehost.com as such we will no longer be allowing our customers to host their own centos linux mirrors as they are too much of a resource drain on other shared hosting customers.
Please take the necessary action to remove the mirror located at http://mirror.speedy-b.net/CentOS/ and contact us once completed to avoid any disruption of your account.
Thank you,
HostMonster.Com
Now I am a BIG supporter of the Linux community, and this was my way of showing that support. But nevertheless, I will have to withdraw my mirror from the list. This is a sad day for me. Thank you,

Thanks for your support during all that time. Don't be sad, your (and maybe others) mirror success somewhat forced them to provide a corporate mirror for the benefit of all. Maybe other ISP/hosting companies will do it also.
Best regards,
