I think you'll find a few people here running SS on Windows servers. It may be that they have tested SS themselves and found problems on their particular server and decided not to investigate further.
Have you actually tried installing it yourself to see what happens?

I had the same problem with some austrian provider. They recommend (strictly) to switch to linux, but I have already few SilverStripe websites installed and running on MS Windows.. I think they are just lazy to upgrade their windows machines..
