Wrong, all the bigger servers use dedicated hosts, and no they cant be sued for allowing you to run a server.

I know for a fact that Winter's Roar was hosted on a server in the USA and the ISP was hit with a copy of the C&D letter and they pulled the server.

Winter's Roar was reborn on a server outside of the USA as Shards of Dalaya.

It is possible for the ISP to be intimidated by a game company. They'll roll over in the blink of an eye if a company comes after them. ISP's don't want that kind of headache. I'd do some research on server hosting in Sweden.

No that simply is true...I don't think Sweden recognizes copyright law, so there's less of a chance of them doing anything about the server if it is hosted there.

Do some research into the activities of www.thepiratebay.org ...

Long live Sweden

What does the pirate bay have to do with an EqEmu server? Don't they provide torrent downloads for illegal software?
That's what everyone (MS, etc) wants to screw them for.
