  Dedicated server recommendations?

One of my dedicated servers has been infiltrated by hackers. The first time on that server, but I've had three other servers compromised in the past.
It seems no matter how quickly I apply the latest software updates there's always a chance someone will exploit holes before I can patch them.

Rather than just do a clean install on this server, I'm considering getting something newer, and in the UK rather than the US.


So can anyone recommend a decent company that can give me the following:


UK based, Linux server

At least 50GB transfer / month, preferably 100GB to allow for growth.

Cpanel - preferably with xcontroller / Fantastico

Some degree of server management (ie they automatically apply the latest updates, and make the server secure, so I don't have to worry about it)


I've considered moving to shared hosting to take away a lot of the admin hassle, but some of the databases I run probably use too much processing time in a shared environment.
