1. A dedicated server is mandatory, hence, where could i get one and how expensive is it?
2. From what i've heard, there is a virus in the serverfiles, is it safe to run them?
3. Would it be expensive to pay a guy to set up the server files for me?
4. Also, there are some bugs in the original server files, are they really hard to fix?
5. How could i protect my server from DDOS and exploit abusing?
Thank you all, and please, contain yourself from rude replies.

Dedicated server are all different you can search at different sites till you find what you want, if you want a good one with good connection it would be around ~60€
If you download the client files there should be no virus, but I would better scan ever server
Setting up the server files is easy, there are even tutorials...do it yourself
I don't know wich bugs you mean
Exploits, as far as I know there are exploits just in the gateway from vsro, use black rogue gateway with vsro files
DDOS; There are many solutions you can defend ddos atacks, but most of them are expensive, I would just try to hide the ip to get not attacked

Would be better as to pay 500$ monthly
