Here is the reply I got from Michael when ozbricks.net disappeared the first
time:
"There was a bandwidth issue with all the .net accounts, but that is fine
now, but ozbricks.com will never run out of bandwidth as it has to be able
to cope with e-commerce traffic, so it is top priority 24 hours a day... so
there is no limit."
