I have no clue what in the world our host is trying to do to the server, but once I get home from school I'll look into it. I'll try to find a time before though. This host is on crack sometimes... I mean everything was working fine, I don't know why they had to install something on the server.

Woo we're back!

Note to any administrators: Don't attempt to install phpuexec! I still don'tknow what that does and why they tried installing it... it has something to do with the php mail() function not sending as "nobody". They had to disable mail because of spam. I say just enable it, and let the spammers be dealt with individually.

Noticed the shout box is not working, probably a file I need to chmod to 777. It seems when something like this happends I need to rechmod everything. I should make my scripts use the php chmod function so I don't have to worry about doing it manually.

I also fubared my PC at the same time as this, so I'm going back upstairs to see if I can recover my partition data and boot back into windows. linux dual boot = no no. Well if you want one, make sure you never want to remove it!

They restored the server that's why. Basically they screwed up their server and realize that thing was not a good idea to install. :D
