Security Exception

web-app

Just upgraded from 2.0.5 to 2.1 and receive Security Exception error.
Just wondering if anyone else saw it or knows how to fix it.
Thanks in advance...

This is the reply I received from my hosting provider (ServerIntellect):

"The error is due to a higher trust level being required in order to run the application. It is an industry standard practice for a host to run in medium trust. I apologize for the inconvenience but it is necessary for the security and stability of the server to avoid making exceptions to this policy. All code needs to comply to medium trust settings."

Is Gemini requiring higher than Medium trust? If so, is there anything I can do about it? I've tried to override the trust in the web.config, but the hosting provider has the allowoverride=false in the root web.config and I can't do anything about that.

Do you know which version of IIS they are running?
