Other Tools

The following features are included as part of our web hosting packages.

	Virus Scan
	This function allows you to use ClamAV to scan your email, home directory and public webspace. Scanning consistently for viruses will help keep your site running properly, and can prevent many problems.
	Leech Protect
	Leech Protect allows you to prevent users from publicly posting their password to a restricted area of your site. It also can prevent people from attempting to guess a user's password through repeated guesses.
	Image Manager
	The Image Manager allows you to view and modify images in your account. You can change the size of your images, convert their file type, or just view them with the Image Manager.
	Backup
	The Backup area allows you to download the daily, weekly, or monthly backup file of your entire web site, or a particular MySQL, alias, or filter backup file. If your computer crashes, or your personal backups are destroyed, these files allow you to recover your site in a convenient manner (you could also use FTP to download each file, but it would take much longer as the files are not compressed).
	Redirects
	The Redirects area allows you to redirect Internet traffics from one web page to another. This is usually used when a web page has been moved to another location.
	. Frontpage Extensions
	Frontpage Extensions allow you to publish your web site using Microsoft Frontpage. These extensions can occasionally become corrupted, so you can uninstall and then reinstall Frontpage Extensions whenever required.
	HotLink Protection
	Hotlinking is when another web site owner links directly to one or more of your images or multimedia files and includes it on their web page. Not only is this theft of your intellectual property, you are paying for the bandwidth used by that site.
	Index Manager
	The Index Manager enables you to control how directories on your web site are displayed. If there is no index.html in a particular directory, the contents of the directory will be displayed to the browser. This is usually undesirable and can cause security issues.
	IP Deny Manager
	The IP Deny Manager enables you to block access to your web site from specific IP addresses. This is useful to remove nuisance surfers who use a large amount of bandwidth or to prevent hotlinking to your site
	Password Protect Directories
	You can protect directories within your site from browsers by using a password to protect them. This allows you to restrict material to only authorized users or store sensitive material online. This has the same appearance and effect as the password protection on CPanel.
