try:
http://www.hostmywebsitenow.com
on the dedicated server(probably won't need dedicated cuz u just want a simple site) it says u can get an external firewall. so i guess it'll protect u. i'm a newbie and i'm just starting up some fans sites using hostmywebsitenow.
if u wana start a SIMPLE site then under 'web hosting' if u click on 'hosting' plans there are heaps there. i would get the 'windows operating system' 'deluxe' plan cuz it comes with this thing called 'community server' that lets u easily add a forum,blogs and galleries to ur site.u can register a domain name there too.
