    Hi,

    i take a look on the source and found a code line, that make me look twice.

    $file=fopen("http://sandbox.net.ua/mystat/update.php?host=".$host."&ip=".$ip."&ver=".$GLOBALS['myStat_version']."&mail=".$GLOBALS['current_user']->user_email."", "r");

    The Homepage of the programer also the email-adress are more than suspect.

    Please Mister Smyshlaev Evgeniy, could you explain it to me, why you need beside my ip and host also my email-adress?

    Kind regards

    Daniela

    If you think that I have written a plug-in only for this purpose what to collect email gathering of addresses is not necessary such efforts. ;) It can be made much easier

    * Pageviews - number of web-pages downloading;
    * Hosts - number of unique IP-addresses requesting for the web-pages;
    * Users - number of the web-site visitors having executed java-script and downloaded the counter image.
