These idiots have no idea what they're doing. It's posted all over their website that they support ASP.NET 3.5. Which one would suppose means that they support LINQ too. But apparently thier server guys have never read the .NET readme. Which states (in section 2.3.1.4) that they need to modify the configuration for Medium Trust to allow the LINQ framework to do its stuff. Their "support" is nothing but taking your money and insisting that they can't make this change, and that their website is still correct.

I hate finding out about these things like this. Why dosn't their website say something like "Supports .NET 3.5 except LINQ". Especially in their KB "What is Medium Trust and how does it affect my application?" There's no mention of LINQ not being supported.

BTW: The error I was getting is a SecurityException related to the lack of ReflectPermission. Just lovely.
