TCH-Dick

Trillian here to, it lets you run multiple screen names for each service, so I can have my work screen names and my personal screen names running at the same time on one app.

make sure you dont have any added spaces after your closing tags on the files you modified

We did exactly whatb Scott is talking about to another hardware review website that was basiclly cut and pasting hardware reviews from other sites and calling them their own. Everyone that had one of their review plagerised or that had a news story listed on that site redirected all image requests from the site to some nice "plagerism is illegal" images and some not so nice "explicative deleted" images.

do you have hotlink protection enabled?

Yes, thats why it is still listed in cpanel. TCH has no control over the scripts that come with cpanel, that is all handled by cpanel.net.

not exactly, the mod rewrite stuff is a hack for nuke tho

Heres a cut n paste frompart of my htaccess, I have NO clue how mod_rewrite works, but maybe this will help. >RewriteEngine on #The next lines check for Email Spammers Robots and redirect them to a fake page RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Alexibot [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^asterias [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BackDoorBot [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Black.Hole [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BlackWidow [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BlowFish [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BotALot [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BuiltBotTough [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Bullseye [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^BunnySlippers [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Cegbfeieh [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^CheeseBot [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^CherryPicker [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^ChinaClaw [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^CopyRightCheck [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^cosmos [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Crescent [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Custo [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^DISCo [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^DittoSpyder [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Download\ Demon [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^WWWOFFLE [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Xaldon\ WebSpider [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Xenu's [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Zeus RewriteRule ^.*$ emailsforyou.php [L] #RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^-?$ #RewriteRule ^.*$ /www/nukecops/noID.php [L] RewriteRule ^index.html index.php #Articles RewriteRule ^article-([0-9]*)-([a-z]*)-([0-9]*)-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=$1&mode=$2&order=$3&thold=$4 RewriteRule ^article-([0-9-]*)-([a-z]*)-([0-9]*)-([0-9]*).html([0-9#]*) modules.php?name=News&file=article&thold=$1&mode=$2&order=$3&sid=$4$5 RewriteRule ^article-topic([0-9]*)-page([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&new_topic=$1&pagenum=$2 RewriteRule ^article-category([0-9]*)-page([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&file=categories&op=newindex&catid=$1&pagenum=$2 RewriteRule ^article-category-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&file=categories&op=newindex&catid=$1 RewriteRule ^article-print-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=$1 RewriteRule ^article-friend-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&file=friend&op=FriendSend&sid=$1 RewriteRule ^article-page-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&pagenum=$1 RewriteRule ^article([1-9][0-9]*).* modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=$1 RewriteRule ^article-topic-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=News&new_topic=$1 RewriteRule ^allnews.html modules.php?name=News&file=allindex RewriteRule ^news.html modules.php?name=News #AvantGo RewriteRule ^avantgo-print-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=AvantGo&file=print&sid=$1 RewriteRule ^avantgo.html modules.php?name=AvantGo #Content RewriteRule ^content-([0-9]*)-page([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=$1&page=$2 RewriteRule ^content-cat-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=Content&pa=list_pages_categories&cid=$1 RewriteRule ^content-([0-9]*).html modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=$1 RewriteRule ^content.html modules.php?name=Content

I know enough about PHP to get myself in trouble

Yup, already tried there. i found one that ALMOST does everything I want it to, doesnt create the subfolders but it does require registration with a valid e-mail address.

What operating system are you using?

Thanks Tracy, Thats a little more than what I'm looking for. what I'm looking for doesnt need to create thumbs, or a gallery or anything, just something that requires a password and uploads to the folder associated to that user.

I've been looking for a file uploader script that will allow members to upload pictures from their pc, it needs to have the ability to create subfolders for each member, and restrict file types and sizes. I had one that worked GREAT about a year ago but I cant remember the name of it, if anyone has any suggestion let me know.

did you change it from the default password?

Yes, we allow adult content, as long as it is legal (US laws) content.

I was going to say the same thing Andy already said Also, if that classifieds script gives you to much trouble, take a look at this one http://classifieds.phpoutsourcing.com/ I installed it on my site the eother day and it was by far the simplest install I have ever done. heres about 15-20 minutes worth of set up http://classifieds.x-trememodz.com/index.php

moron I didn't pay a lot of attention as I should have in college. -- Vice President Dan Quayle

That just screams scam or virus if you ask me

host name should be localhost

did you assign the user you created to the database you created? You do that in manage mysql

Yes mod rewrite is enabled, I use it myself on a couple of nuke sites I have

All of our servers run red hat linux 7.x or better, All of our servers are x86 (most dual and quad P4's) /you can change permissions via file manager or an ftp program.

TCH uses secure server

We apply all security patches as soon as they are available, and yes we do keep offsite backups in different DC's. Like bill said, worse case scenario both drives die in a server, we can have it full restored from the previous days back up. If the backups were kept on the same server, we would have some VERY unhappy customers. Most hosting companies (in the same price range we are in) keep all of their back ups on the same machine as the websites to save money, but no matter how much money you save by cutting costs, if your customers leave because your server crashed and you cant restore their site, you stand to lose a LOT more than you gained by being cheap.
