Eric,

My recommendation is to get a new host or better yet a VPS! It's really 
not worth the trouble learning TYPO3 on anything less then a VPS. TYPO3 
is a very powerful and complex application and is way easier to manage 
with full "root" access... believe me I learned the hard way. Managing a 
server is not that scary once you get your feet wet and Google makes it 
very easy ;)

If you have a high traffic site you're going to save a lot of time and 
"money" by paying a little more for full control over your TYPO3 
installation... not to mention iron clad security! Find someone to split 
the cost and you'll pay a fraction of what your paying now per megabyte.

To pick a good VPS go to http://webhostingtalk.com

I use http://servint.com because they are one of a few companies that 
didn't have a horror story behind them at http://webhostingtalk.com. 
There are cheaper VPS solutions then ServInt. Choose carefully.
