Since my server is still suffering, Ive decide today to take some
actions. user: changes can be done on shared hosting with limited user rights.
root. changes require a full access to the server (root access with secure shell ssh)
I have currently per months, 160.000 visitors and 2 Millions Hits.or per day 8000 visitors and 24000 pages view.
Server has only 1GB RAM.
UPDATE: I found one/THE reason why my host is slowing down...SPAMMERS!

Also running on my Homepage...
I am currently developing this release due to many requests in the forum.
UPDATE1: wont be release today (tonight for me, it is already 23:30PM GMT+1), still testing, you can apply as a beta tester by contacting me HERE
Small change request can always be integrated, please use my forum and create a new thread in the right section
What's new?
NEW: protection against Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack, thanks to Joomla! framework, see here
NEW: use recaptcha to protect guest book against spammer. 
NEW: you may prefer security images instead of recaptcha, the guest book now support securityimages5.x.x!
BUG: Akobook Fix for Number of Guest Entries and Pages thanks to user mygeek911
BUG: on some host blank page during install or in some menu has been resolved, it was old code having php code embedded starting with <? ... ?> (PHP4 support both) instead of <?php ... ?> (PHP5 only support this)
BUG: layout bug in all front end page solved, not all view were using 100% of the view
NEW
NEW: Admin Comments all lowercase... now you can change this behavior in admin panel 
NEW: a new menu entry that can check if you are running the latest version of this software 
NEW: refactoring but can be considered daily part of the work -> this code is not MVC at all, and has to be turn into a real Joomla! 1.5 extension. I consider anti spamming and security more important in the TODO list at the moment than making the code MVC.
Hurry up any post in this forum http://forums.waltercedric.com/index.php?board=46.0 may enter into that release as well :-)
