  1. Dear folks,

    Sincere apologies for not having been here for the last few days!

    I have hundreds of emails to reply to and a lot of forum posts to read.

    This is because I have started a new job with a small startup company which is an hour in each direction from where I live about 75 miles round trip!

    I have to leave home at 7:30 and and do not come home until near 7:30pm.

    I'm hoping that this will not influence CubeCart too much but things need to settle.

    :(

  2. No I think they didn't realise it would put the placeholder back. So in fact I didnt see any downtime. (Although I'm sure they had to reboot).

    WebSiteSource.com have been oustanding in the 2 months I've been with them. Not cheap though :P but I think in hosting like most other things in life you really do get what you pay for.

  3. Its fixed now. This "upgrade" wrote a whole lot of placement images and an index.html in the html root.

    A bit annoying as I feel it should not have done this. However they have been deleted and all seems to be fine now.

    It's fine by me and quite refreshing to have a hosting company that schedules any downtime with a warning message. :P

  4. Yes I should have put a warning up about this... it just shocked me but now I remember the email my hosting company sent yesterday.

  5. Yeah I'm still recieving about 20+ visuses a day but McAffee deletes every one of them permanently on arival. However after a deep scan over night this computer was infected with SoBig AGAIN and a Trojan which was causing it to pause about every ten minutes then suddenly start again!! All clean now and just to save panic the download on this server has been tested with latest update from McAffee and is fine.

  8. Hi,

    I completely wrote CubeCart over ~7 months (with a dabble of help here and there from some kind people) and I have never even installed OSCommerce .. its a truely wonderful script I know but I couldn't be bothered to spend a good day learning how to install it! - Please dont think I disrespecting OSCommerce as it is a wonderful script.

    I would say the only similarity between CubeCart and OSCommerce is that the product options functions in a similar manner 100% coded by me. Apart from that there is no likeness as far as I'm concerned.

    I thought... why not make life easy and make a script that installs easily!

    Feel free to compare the code and database and you will find it is 100% different.

    I'm pleased you like this script its turned me grey and I'm only 23!! :P

  9. Its fantastic. Only bit of constructive criticism I feel is that the colour scheme is quite hard on your eyes. i.e. Red Background / Blue Text

    I also have a hangover from a big night out in London. For people like me, sites need to be hangover friendly. B)

  10. The price of a single CubeCart license will remain at $49.95 untill 11:59 pm on 17th August 2003.

    This is because there are problems with the secure payment server account which are out of my control. Rest assured that these are being dealt with (not by me but PaySystems in Canada) shortly.

    If this problem is not resolved the price will be left at $49.95 untill it is fixed for at least a 12 - 24 hour period. B)

  11. Because I spent about 3 week looking up domain names and wanted one where .co.uk .net and .com were free.

    CubeCart although many will think it is crap is certainly memorable as it has a visual representation in the mind and is alliteration.

    Thought of hundreds WizardCart MartCart http://esto.re etc etc hundreds but there come a time when you just have to take the plunge.

  12. HI no there isn't a tracking... but most hosting companies provide much more detailed information for you B)

    p.s. Personally I would upgrade to CubeCart it'm much less limited. :D
