About Banned Scripts

Unfortunately, many good things are used for less than respectable ctivities. Commonly used scripts are frequently exploited to allow unauthorized access to the systems they are running on. Others cause overly-extensive server resources to be used which slows down system resources for everyone.

In order to keep our server safe, we may need to take actions that occasionally inconvenience our good customers. Any time we find scripts or other commonly used tools that can become easily compromised or impact other users by using too many server resources, we may need to disable them. Whenever possible, we will notify you in advance. We will attempt to keep this page updated for your reference, although this may not always be possible as new "offensive" scripts or programs are constantly becoming available.

Our list includes the script or program name, the version(s) that is banned and when possible - an alternative is provided.
