Have you ever been curious about your hosting service? Have you ever wondered “what kind of machine is holding up my website”? Well, you are going to love this one: phpSysInfo retrieves an incredible amount of information from the hosting server.
And when I say incredible, I mean INCREDIBLE. Running this PHP it will automatically bring the following information from the server:
- Processor model, type and speed.
- RAM and the amount currently used.
- Operating system.
- Number of hard drives and present RAID configurations.
- Partitions and mounted filesystem free space.
- Number of process running and their status.
- Hardware temperature and voltage.
- Network usage.
- And even more!
This script runs on any site where PHP is enable, it only requires PHP 5.2 version or higher. And the output options are: static content, XML or update it dynamically. Plus, you can get different themes to use it.
The phpSysInfo site have ready a demonstration of their script running on their server. Check it out here.
Did I mention it’s completely free to download?
Enjoy!

As we announced earlier, WordPress released their new version: 2.8, that has big performance improvements. Even though this feature isn’t brand new, it is a nice option that you can give it a try: WordPress Antivirus Plug-In.
The plug-in has a new version, 0.4, that appeared a few days back and it already includes compatibility with the latest WordPress version.
So what exactly a blog antivirus can do? You may ask. Well, this plug-in can help you out on monitoring possible platform vulnerabilities, virus injections, malicious links inserted, etc. Includes also features like email notifications and whitelisting.
The installation process it’s the same as every WordPress plug-in:
1.Download AntiVirus plugin
2.Unzip the archive
3.Upload the folder antivirus into ./wp-content/plugins/
4.Go to tab Plugins
5.Activate AntiVirus
6.Edit settings
