The made savings upon the web server resource consumption are well known, when performing initial transition from non-cached PHP-Nuke (CMS) environment to cached one. Having the CMS cache utilization further dynamically fine-tuned with *user status based* conditional caching approach, a great deal of the available methods is covered in an attempt to get the most out of the cache utilization optimization benefits.

Conditionally in sense of *selected cache strategy* defining explicitly how online user is treated from caching point of view, and dynamically in sense of detected *online user status* being delivered for *cache utilization control architecture* to get evaluated for decision making purposes.

This *wrapper package* is dedicated for dynamically applied conditional cache utilization strategies, and more specifically, when using (de)actively *Cache_Lite* in case of PHP-Nuke standard BLOCKS.

You've watched as 2.1.0 was developed and now it's yours for the grabbing :) Just goto this NukeSentinel Link to get it. IP to Country plugin is also available.

In the beginning was XP and XP begat XP SP1. And things were mostly working. Then, XP SP1 begat XP SP2 and my life became hell.

Having had enough, this morning at 7:00 am I decide to follow Microsoft's 3 step easy unistall
Run appwiz.cpl
Select show updates
Click remove
Live happily ever after

7 hours later, at least 12-15 reboots, scouring the Inernet for how to work around the BSOD, how to trick the installer into letting me do things, on and on, I am now back to XP SP1 and never to return to XP SP2 until they get it really fixed.

And before you say it, I have to have XP to be compatible with my employer. I hate Microsoft.

Have you ever been a victim of adding a theme to your site and then discovering that not only isn't the theme working, but you cannot access your site at all? Normally your only recourse is to use phpMyAdmin and directly edit your config and users table which is a hassle, for sure. With this utility you can make the changes very easily! Try it - you might like it :).

Open source database users face new threat.


By Matthew Broersma, Techworld

Users of the increasingly popular, open-source MySQL database may be at risk from remote attacks due to a bug in phpMyAdmin, a widely used Web-based MySQL administration tool.

On Wednesday the phpMyAdmin project warned of a bug in the way the tool's MIME-based transformation system handles "external" transformations. Attackers could exploit the hole to execute arbitrary commands on a Web server with the privileges of the server's user, the project said in a statement.

A patch available on the phpMyAdmin site fixes the bug.

The vulnerability can only be exploited on systems where PHP's safe mode is turned off. Danish security firm Secunia said the flaw is serious, giving it a "highly critical" ranking.

The new flaw is the most serious to have been uncovered in phpMyAdmin to date; previous bugs, including some allowing configuration manipulation, code injection and cross site scripting, have been only moderately dangerous, according to security researchers.

PhpMyAdmin has become the de facto standard for controlling MySQL databases over a Web-based interface, though it faces numerous competitors. Like MySQL it is distributed under an open-source licence.

MySQL, like some other open-source databases, has gained ground in the database market, particularly in small to medium-sized businesses, industry analysts say. Enterprises are also beginning to eye the product as an alternative to Oracle.
