Small adjustments

I've made some small adjustments:

- keep myself out the list of referers (in index.html just change the if-statement to exclude the references from your own site)
- changed the query for referers (/admin/blocks/referers.php) in two ways. First added an 'order by rid' so the rows get displayed in the right order, and changed the select for the number of rows, the 'select *' changed in 'select rid' so this query is index-covered and faster.
- keep myself out the ip-tracking list (/includes/counter.php) so this list not polluted. I managed this by simply excluding all local ip-addresses.

New Theme

It takes a little getting used-to, but I've changed the complete layout. The mayor change (beside some fonts and colors) is the fact that the news is now displayed in two columns, it looks a little like a newspaper. I'll keep changing this theme until I'm satisfied with it. I have also added four blocks:
- A calender
- the top 10 downloads
- the top 10 links
- th top 10 new downloads.

PortSentry added

On my server I installed Port Sentry by Psionic. This is a deamon that listens at a number of non-used ports and as soon as someone tries to connect, blocks that person. It is a way to detect port-scans en to prevent break-ins. Download the rpm here.

Upgrade to PHP-Nuke 6.0

I've just finished upgrading to PHP-Nuke 6.0 (download here) together with the latest dutch languagefiles (first release candidate) (download here). Right after that I've installed a module that i had seen at an co-workers website, for each ip-address the hits are individual counted. (download here). To see some results, click at statistics on the left and choose for "View IP Statistics". I have changed the statistics module (counter.php in /include) to exclude all internal ip-adresses. The new look for PHP-Nuke 6.0 is the new look for the website.
