I'm trying to use the pre-installed HTML Code Rotator in cPanel (Preinstalled Scripts / CGI Center / Random HTML), I've put some code into it and added the given line into the .SHTML file I'm using.But, when I go to the file, it doesn't work. Where the code should be, its completely blank. Has anyone else had a problem like this?Any ideas?Thanks in advance, saxsux

Okay, thanks. BTW, the second quote thing I put in was wrong. It actually came up with:

A while ago I posted a thread asking if anyone knew anything about wget, and I was given the code below: <?php$foo = system('wget http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ ~',$output);?> Which has been working fine, since the panda server failure a while ago. Since then, whenever I try to use it , it comes up with Has this been disabled by the administrators, or is there a way I can sort it out?

Microsoft Antispyware Beta 1 is quite good. Before I started using it, I was using AOL's Spyware thingy (widely renowned in the AOL community as being utter rubbish). When I installed it I was amazed at how many things it had picked up that AOL had missed.However, I can't understand why it's in Beta. All Microsoft had done was bought GIANT Antispyware and rebranded the software as Microsoft.

I might have said this somewhere else, but with the release of thier new Google Personalixed Homepage, they seem to be ebbing closer and closer to becoming a Web Portal (like Yahoo), rather than the search engine they are.Google are a search engine, everything they have done so far has been based around that fact, yet the Google Personalized Homepage has little to do with search, it's just a take on My Yahoo! or My MSN. Okay, its not bad for something that's still in Beta, but it does seem to be lacking in the sheer amount of content and personalisation options that My Yahoo and My MSN currently offer.

Why did you need to write all the above? Couldn't you just have asked about a refferal system, rather than telling everyone how you got the idea, etc?Okay, enough criticism. It could be a good idea, but people might abuse it and set up false accounts, or people might never post in the forums and spend all thier time spamming a refferal link everywhere. That could serious;y damage Xisto's and Xisto's (if not as well Xisto's and Xisto - Web Hosting's) images, making it seem like they were pro-spamming.

I honestly don't see how that is a security problem. Surely even a completely inexperienced computer user would notice the new window opening when they clicked the link. Even if they didn't, who would be stupid enough to enter bank account details into a completely unsecure javascript dialogue?To be honest, I doubt scammers will be adopting this method quite soon

I can really see the appeal of the iPod shuffle - what with it being cheaper and all - but reading this has made me think...Can't the shuffle function be turned off? I thought it was optional. Making a MP3 player that doesn't play yours songs when you want and only picks them at random seems abit stupid!

You could also try Xara 3D, (http://www.xara.com/us/products/xara3d/) I tried an older trial version a while ago and found it pretty useful.

I'm having trouble at the moments as well.I thinkthe server is still playing up

The image doesn't refresh constantly, it would be to expensive to have a sattelite taking photos of an entire country and constantly uploading them to Google's server. Can you imagine how much Google would have to pay for them?I imagine that all the photos were taken during the day, so it was as clear as possible. If you're looking for a night time aerial photo, I recommend you pay for one from a professional.How can this seem like a film? Have you any idea how many map providers offer aerial photos? Its not like they're spying on you - the quality isn't that good!

Have you tried installing the Java plugin for Firefox?Since Runescape is Java, you will need to install the plugin (it doesn't come as standard with Firefox), but it will have worked with Internet Explorer because IE has it has default.

Even if Microsoft release IE7 and say its better than Firefox, no way am I gonna download it. I can't stand IE.Firefox is customisable, fast, secure, safe, innovative. Bill Gates would have to personally come round to my house, give a £1million pounds in cash, get down on his knees and beg really kindly for me to get IE7 even for me to just think about it!

I know that at the moment the panda server is down, and our files are all being transfered, etc, etcBut are we still being charged for this? Seeing as our sites are going to be down for quite a while, shouldn't Hosting Credits be frosen where they are or something, after all, we a re effectively paying for nothing.

Yep, it only works in safe mode. But, while your in Safe Mode, you could create another admin account to use normally. Restart your computer and then login as that admin account.

I'm not sure, I think they do. AOL has it, buts its optional.Those security questions are really annoying. You could have the most secure password in the world, "guarded" with a question that someone could get the answer to by talking to you for five minutes. It's really pathetic that so few places let you choose your own question.

That's the Google Personalized Homepage, I mentioned it in the list earlier.You're right it is pretty useful, but at the moment, services like My MSN or My Yahoo are (I hate to say it) better... The thing is, the services Google offer with thier personalized homepage are useful, but MSN and Yahoo's have so much more. Also, Google is stepping closer and closer to becoming a web portal, rather than a search engine. Google Personalized Homepage does look promising though... but it could do with a lot of work on it.

It really should have worked. Have you tired logging into cPanel like I said above?

In cPanel, go to file manager. Navigate to the file (it should be in the public_html or www folder, otherwise people wont see it) and click on its name (not the icon). In the pane on the top right there will be a list of options. Click on the one "Edit this File". Edit it and click the Save button.Hey Presto, all done!Enjoy Xisto

This has happened to people before. Aparently, thier account was activated, but you just don't find out about it. Try going to http://yourwebaddress.astahost.com:2082 (replace yourwebaddress with whatever web address you chose. Also, if it was differeent, change the .astahost.com bit too), and login in with the username and password you chose. If it works then your account is active! If not, then try contacting NilsC or vujsa. Hope this helps

Yeah, I already knew that. I managed to get an ariel photo of Google HQ and one of Jacko's Neverland Ranch.The only thing is, its only available in the US, so I can't use it on the UK version of Google Mpas and Google Local.Shame

What you could do is add the file to a .ZIP archive and apply a password. That way no one without the password could access it.Is this intended to be malicious?

This is absolutely brilliant! I love this wallpaper!One tiny, teeny weeny critisism though - I think jet was right about the stripes. I would probably look better if they were blurred slightly.Don't worry though, it is excellent!

None of you really have put much research into this... Firstly, Google News, Groups and Local are BETA (Tommy didn't mention it). Also, Google Maps and Keyhole are 2 seperate things. Google already offer Instant Messaging. It came as part of the deal when they bought Picassa. Visit hello.com; Gnatius, no offence, but the whole 20% thing is actually quite common knowledge. The whole thing about Local Services, I don't know exactly what you mean, BUT try this - https://www.google.co.uk/maps and https://www.google.co.uk/maps/preview?source=newuser-ws (or .com for the American versions). And, heres an improved list: Google Groups Google Local (BETA) Google Web Accelerator (BETA) Google News (BETA) Google Alerts Google AdWords Google AdSense Google Translate Google Maps Google Video (BETA) Gmail (BETA) Google Desktop Search Picasa 2 Hello (Instant Messaging and Picture Sharing) Google Print (online Libary, pre BETA) Google Images Google Fusion aka Personalized Homepage (BETA) Google Search I'm Feeling Lucky Froogle (BETA) Google Answers (Payed Service) Keyhole (Payed Service) Google Calculator Google Catalogues Google Directory (interestingly, there are 2 different Google Directories - I posted a thread on it earlier) Google Labs Google X (closed ages ago, but mirrored on many places on the net) Google Special Searches Google Universities Google Scholar (BETA) Google Mobile (WML and XHTML) Google SMS Blogger Google Toolbar My Search History (BETA) Google Glossary Google Suggest (Brilliant, yet BETA) Google Deskbar Google Suggest in Japanese Google Sets (BETA) Google Compute Site Flavoured Search Box Froogle Wirelss (BETA) Google Search Appliance Google Mini Search Appliance Google Store Phew! Feel free to add to it!

Your ban system's broken!
