1/28/2005 - New Improvements Added to Web Hosting Control Panel

We are happy to announce the substantial new improvements added to the Web Hosting Control Panel. The Web Hosting Control Panel is now available in French in addition to English, German, Spanish and Bulgarian. A completely new theme called "Kalo" has been added to the Control Panel as well. The new theme is available in the following colors: green, blue, sky blue, red and orange. You can change the theme and its color from the “Change Theme” button at the top right of the Control Panel, through the “Account Profile” drop-down menu at the top of the page and through the “Change Control Panel Theme” link in the lower part of the Control Panel home page.

An even more significant addition to the Web hosting Control Panel is the introduction of Flash video tutorials for each section of the Control Panel. The Flash video tutorials are accessible from the “Support” drop-down menu at the top of the Control Panel and through the “Video Tutorials” link at the bottom right of the Control Panel homepage. When you access the video tutorials you will be taken to a list containing all available tutorial video and you can watch any tutorial of your choice. You can also choose a section of the Control Panel from the drop-down menus at the top of the page and you will be taken to the respective section of the Control Panel, where next to the “Help” link icon (a question mark) you will see a “Video Tutorials” link and icon (a film strip). If there is a single tutorial video associated with this section of the Control Panel, it will start when you click on the “Video Tutorials” link or icon. In case that there is more than one video tutorial associated with the respective section of the Control Panel, you will see the list of all available tutorials for this section. You can watch the video tutorial that you choose by clicking on the link with its title.

We hope that the addition of video tutorials will greatly enhance the usability of the Control Panel, while the new theme will raise number of aesthetic choices and the French version will increase the market reach and presence of our services.

6/8/2004 - Spam protection and E-Mail filters added

We are happy to present to your attention two brand new services, which are now available in the Control Panel.

The first one is a SPAM protection, which will prevent your mailboxes from different types of SPAM. The SPAM will be detected according to different commonly accepted criteria, classified into five levels of detection. You can test all five levels (from Low to Very High) by customizing the service to delete or redirect detected messages, thus finding the level that will best suit your needs.

The second service is called E-mail filters. By using this service for a selected by you alias, all incoming mail to this alias can be filtered according to conditions set by you. All messages, which correspond exactly to the conditions you have set, can be deleted or redirected to any other e-mail address.

(Note that this is a generally set e-mail filter and messages cannot be redirected into different folders but only to e-mail addresses.)

4/19/2004 - Anti-virus protection added on all servers

The long-expected protection from e-mail viruses is already a fact from the beginning of this week (April 12, 2004). An automated anti-virus protection was installed on all servers. This applies to all SMTP and POP3 servers. The anti-virus software contains definitions of over 20,000 existing viruses. Virus definitions are updated every two hours (120 minutes). This guarantees maximum protection to all hosting customers. If your PC is infected by a virus, which is spread by e-mail, anti-virus protection will not allow the virus to spread using SMTP servers. The same is valid when you receive your e-mail from our POP3 servers. You should all be aware of the fact that any anti-virus protection can save you only from existing and recognized viruses.

3/12/2004 - New Server Added

A new server has been added. The server runs on a P4 2.8 GHz and hard drives are set in a RAID5 configuration.

3/12/2004 - Load average table added

A table for monitoring the server load is available for your convenience. It is located into the "Server Information" section. The table contains the load average for 3 periods - 1 minute, 5 minutes and 15 minutes load average. Do not wonder if the load does not change every time you refresh the page. In order to avoid increasing the server load we have set a 15 minute table update term. The server load will rise to 1.5 - 2 everyday between 10 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. EST as this time is used to run the daily backups which cause greater disk usage. If, for any reason, you see the server load higher than 2 at any other time, you can request help as this could be evidence for possible spam activity. We will investigate all reports for higher load and stop any spam activity.

1/30/2004 - New Server Added

A new server has been added to our rack. The server configuration is P4 2.4 GHz, 1.5 GB memory & 36 GB SCSI hard drives in RAID5. All new modifications and Control Panel updates have been applied to all servers.

1/13/2004 - Custom MX and A records.

Ability to modify the MX and the A records is available now. To do this, enter the "Custom DNS records" menu.

1/13/2004 - SSL certificate generation.

We have added an option for generating of SSL certificates.
