It depends on what the application does or doesn't do. If it never ever sends out email, get rid of the sendmail stuff in php.ini, so there's no chance of a silly mistake leading to sending bulk email. If you never need to use PHP to read content from a URL, turn off allow_url_fopen. Moving to a dedicated server is great for performance/features, but if you're inexperienced as a sysadmin, you might want to consider hiring a local sysadmin to help out. And, of course, there are a TON of things you can (and I should) read about sysadmin work, security, and more security. Finding the time to DO that, however, can be problematic. I personally work very very very hard to be sure that I have to admin a minimum number of boxes with very limited functionality, and foist off any generalized sysadmin work to a shared host, for precisely the reason that I *know* my limitations in being a sysadmin. :-) -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
