eUKhost arn't upateing their security rules as doing the mod_security thing you have done makes your website hosting vulnerable - so if they did it server wide it would make everyones account on every server insecure which would not be good!

I prefer to know my account is secure! Plus phpBB3 is only at RC (release candidate) stage isn't it? - they might iron out their security problems with the first proper release .
