Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

When you say delete.. do you mean it whacks the file on the disk or
some other copy...
Looking at the files.. my entire home directory is considered to be in
an invalid context. I am not sure I want those files deleted.. And I
am not sure

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2
/usr/lib/libsmbclient.so.0
/usr/lib/sendmail
/usr/lib/libboost_signals.so.1
/usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.so.1
/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
/usr/lib/libboost_thread.so.1
/usr/lib/libkrbafs.so.0
/usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so.1

would be good to kill.. I wouldnt mind losing all of /etc/gconf :).

Is there anything else that can be done?
