bandwidth problem
Recently I renewed my vps.. It has 1tB bw.
After 2 or 3 days later, my vps was suspended.
I got ini that my vps reached 1tB usage..
It seems impossible because I just host static webpage with glype proxy..
I hardly reach up to 100gB usage on previous month.. Can anyone help me?

What are you hosting? Have you looked at your logs? Do you have something misconfigured?
/var/log/ <-- Good place to start checking.
Pay the fee, and go through bandwidth logs. I was running glype on my webserver and some Chinese proxy site posted it and started using a lot more bandwidth.
I was running public glype network several years ago and I remember that once Chinese and/or Iranians found out about my little proxy network they burnt all my BW in few days.
Glype have option to block traffic from certain country subnets. Not most nice feature for some visitors but sometimes only solution for that kind of public service if you want to keep your stuff online.
You could have been compromised.
Would glype not be considered an "open proxy"? I believe most providers do not allow proxies unless they're access controlled anyway.
cd /var/log
du -sh *
Usually makes it obvious where to look.
my glype proxy, can be indexed by google, and available free for public. And then people can use it to download bug files, and then another people would do the same
Could have an open resolver?
owh.. but why the visitor count not shown in awstat??
the stat show only little visit..
I dont know about that.. is it problem with dns??
Do you have glype logging enabled?
For glype 1TB really isn't something extreme once your proxy url appear at some chinese blog.
I miss KiloServe & .co.cc
Yah, I enabled them..
How can they found the glype installed??
From a simple google keyword "powered by Glype" etc
Probably found by someone and then posted on Facebook/Twitter/YouTube.
well, I moved my domain to another server, and removed the glype proxy.. hope this problem wont come again
check your DNS server for recursive queries , if it is the case , you B/W will burn very fast.
