ChicagoVPS are terrible. If you Google ChicagoVPS the suggest searches are "ChicagoVPS down" and "ChicagoVPS hacked".

There's 10 million threads on Lowendtalk bitching about ChicagoVPS. Here's one from last year. http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/7668/chicagovps-has-lost-th...

You get what you pay for.

I've sworn off cheap VPSes - most are running WHM as their control panel/billing and they're a target for DDoSes and attacks by skiddies.

I have too. I used some cheap vms for about 9 months, but after the host lost vms including backups (I had my own backups, but I still had to set everything up again), and relatively frequent outages, I switched to Digital Ocean, and couldn't be happier, and the price is pretty good. I figure I'll switch to Linode if I start having problems, but it's been great so far (knock on wood).
