I also took the oppotunity to setup custom error pages, and regigged the css for the site. Cookie to the first person to notice what the change is I made. I have also added a link to stats. Like the cgi-bin this is password protected, sorry. Interestingly so far this month some 45000+ hits have happened, scarily over 10000 of those are 404 not found. And looking through the logs, it appears most of these 10000 are auto bot things trying to find known buggy php scripts. Bah! Anyway, enjoy.
