Basically the code says if the operating system is NOT Windows, and if the 'loadlimit' value is greater than zero, and if the 'loadavg' value is greater than the 'loadlimit' value, then set the 'servertoobusy' flag to 'true'. This flag controls whether the "too busy" message is displayed on the site. The interesting thing is the 'loadlimit' value is set in the database to '0', meaning this feature "should" be disabled.

Thank you Wards....... I knew it had something to do with server load limits and I thought it could be done from admincp!! (Sadly Daves wife didnt know how to do it (and I didnt know exactly what to tell her))

Thank you Wards,we love ya buddy!!!!!

Hi to all,

"Thank you Grumpy and Wardsweb for bringing Videokarma back to life!"

it would be wise to have direct Mail addresses for these two gentlemen in case internet mischief happens again.

Any possibility to increase the size of jpg/bmp/pdf attachments to attain the convenience of more recent forum engines?
increase in number of pixels and file size would be great.

A backup of the entire site as of today for read-only access.
Would the ETF be willing to host?

Best Regards
