CGI Scripts disabled

We have disabled the Mchat, Cgiecho, Cgiemail, Guestbook, Counter and Formmails from CPanel’s system wide cgi-sys directory. The are the most commonly exploited scripts since they are in the same location on every CPanel server in the world.

We have learned our lesson that it is better take the side of security rather than convenience. If you are using these scripts, they might not work anymore. We will provide you with alternative scripts to replace them.

Enable register_globals on individual cPanel accounts

Since register_globals is disabled on the servers for security purposes, some of your scripts and Fantastico installs might not work properly. However, you can enable it on your individual accounts thru .htaccess.

All you need to do is edit your .htaccess in the root folder of your account (or create one via the File Manager if none exist).

Place the ff. line of code in it:

php_flag register_globals on

That’s it.
