[cod] COD4 Server hosting recommendations

[Seth Sauls]

Hi All

As far as being seen in the ingame browser ( cod4 ) I havent had any issues
with this on Linux or Windows.  There is one or two cases every once in a
blue moon that needs the 30 minute off trick but other than that I have had
zero issues with this.
