   Anti Bot System using Auto Updating .htaccess File

   By MidnightMaster95

   One of my websites was permanently frequented by 500-600 bots which put extra strain on my server for no return.
   So i needed a solution to kick them out.
   I found ip-bannliste.de which offer a frequently updated .htaccess file that kicks out known bad bots.
   They have an auto updater php script that you can use manually or in conjunction with a cronjob to automatically update your .htaccess file.
   I had 2 Problems with this approach:
   - I wasn't really happy about having to setup a cronjob
   - Since this script automatically overwrites the .htaccess file every X hours/days (you decide), it also overwrites any code you manually added to your .htaccess file. Which is a real problem for me.
   So i addressed these two issues and released this improved version. Now you can:
   - Include the auto updater directly into your cms (No need for a cronjob anymore since website visitors now trigger the update/script) (The script checks when the .htaccess file was last updated, it only updates it once every 24h)
   - Add custom .htaccess code to an additional file which automaticall gets re-added after/during each .htaccess file update
   Please note:
   This improved Auto Updater is written by me / Michael Ernst (your-wbb.de, midnightmaster95.com) but the .htaccess File (Bot IP) Updates are still being provided by ip-bannliste.de      aka beforesunrise.de
   If you use a CMS like Wordpress oder Invision Community (basically every CMS these days) that automatically overwrites the core files on each update you need to write yourself a little plugin for the integration of this script. Otherwise it (the inclusion) will get removed each time you update your CMS.

   Simple PHP Template System 1.0

   By MidnightMaster95

   A simple template system that i use in some of my php projects.
   I decided to share this with you guys for free.
   This basically seperates php code and everything else (html, css such as javascript) into dedicated files. (.php and .tpl)
   You could easily change the file extension for tpl files.
   With a little creativity you can integrate switching between multiple template folders for different designs.

   phpBB 1.4.4

   By MidnightMaster95

   Vintage forum software from the late 90s. (Version 1.4.4 has been released on 12/16/2000 m.d.y)
   The license permits sharing this software.
   It needs PHP and MYSQL Version 4 or maybe even earlier to run. (Not tested)
   What's cool about this software is that it does not use any CSS Code.
   That means if you can get it to run you could connect from old computers
   and/or operating systems which do not have a browser recent enough to support css. (Cascading Style Sheets)
