check out swvps.com (http://www.swvps.com/affiliates/jrox.php?id=1143). They have been pretty solid for me, ping times to my broker are real low. Payment is a little weird, and no autopay, they bill you via emial and you can pay with lots of services included credit cards and paypal. They are very Generous with their server specs. I run 3 demos and a live account just fine from it. I did the $18 plan and pay $2 more to utilize their higher rated server location 99.6% uptime vs. 99.4% or something. Its a windows 2003 server. Choose a location that's closest to your broker for more reliable service.
Some tips when setting up a windows 2003 VPS server. Make sure you turn on the firewall and leave the RDP port open. Never surf from it only do your trading from it. Download only the EA's and trading related stuff to it nothing else. It sole purpose is to trade reliably and successfully. Also make sure you setup your MT4 platform(s) to run on startup and have the admin user autologin on a restart. (just in case it reboots it will login and start MT4 back up automatically) When you remote into it make sure you use the "%systemroot%\system32\mstsc.exe /v:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /admin" switch. Edit your RDP shortcut. You need to login to the admin RDP session and not a guest RDP session.
No sure what the nearest location they have closest to FXPro's servers.
Hope this helps!

Yes, swvps is quite good. I used the $18 plan for 3 copy of mt4 currently without any issue.

MetaTrader 4 was not originally designed for No Dealing Desk execution. However, we have worked with a third party (Boston Technologies) to make it compatible and to bring you the benefits of FXCM's No Dealing Desk execution. For your more satisfaction visit to a fxcm.co.uk. Its grate.

(it's right below this one)
I just opened a VPS account with FCXM UK and I'm having problems with FAPS. It's been two weeks and not much progress with their Tech Support or the Boston Technology guys. You might want to look into it since many people use FAPS and might want to open an account with FXCM, only to find out that FAPS doesn't work on their VPS.
