If you experiencing failure to update plugins bigger than 2mb i.e Jetpack, you may want to look at Core Control plugin
Core control plugin allows you to select and disable problematic HTTP transport control.
In our case, we prefer cURL method because its is more reliable than PHP Streams. Here is how to configure.
Then Select External HTTP Access
Then you can try update your plugins again.
We have upgraded all Php versions to 5.3.13.
PHP 5.3.12/5.4.2 do not fix all variations of the CGI issues described in CVE-2012-1823. It has also come to our attention that some sites use an insecure cgiwrapper script to run PHP. These scripts will use $* instead of “$@” to pass parameters to php-cgi which causes a number of issues. Again, people using mod_php or php-fpm are not affected.
One way to address these CGI issues is to reject the request if the query string contains a ‘-’ and no ‘=’. It can be done using Apache’s mod_rewrite like this:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^[^=]*$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} %2d|\- [NC]
RewriteRule .? - [F,L]
Note that this will block otherwise safe requests like ?top-40 so if you have query parameters that look like that, adjust your regex accordingly.Another set of releases are planned for Tuesday, May, 8th. These releases will fix the CGI flaw and another CGI-related issue in apache_request_header (5.4 only).

100 Known Spam Operations responsible for 80% of your spam.
80% of spam received by Internet users in North America and Europe can be traced via aliases, addresses, redirects, locations of servers, domains and dns setups, to a hard-core group of around 100 known spam operations, almost all of whom are listed in the ROKSO database.
Each spam operation, or “spam gang”, consists on average of between 1 to 5 spammers (giving an etimated total of 300-400 spammers).
The majority of the spammers on the ROKSO List operate illegally and move from network to network and country to country seeking out Internet Service Providers with poor security or known for not enforcing of anti-spam policies.
Many of these spam operations pretend to operate ‘offshore’. Those who don’t hide behind anonymity pretend to be small ‘ISPs’ themselves, claiming to their providers that the spam is being sent not by them but by non-existent ‘customers’. When caught, almost all use the age old tactic of lying to each ISP long enough to buy a few days or weeks more of spamming and when terminated simply move on to the next ISP already set up and wating.

We are excited to announce that we have added new feature – SMS notification (one way) to inform our customers for pending invoices and domain renewal notification . Even though this feature still in beta phase, customers can opt in by logging in client area and add a mobile number including country code format and choose option”Yes” to receive this notification. If you select “NO” the system will not send you automated reminder SMS.
Email notification will still be functional or active. This service is free to help customer renew their account before domain reached expiry date. Expired domain will undergo DNS propagation and your web site will be online again after 6/8 hours.
We would like to inform our shared hosting customers we are currently pushing upgrade across all servers.We currently run PHP 5.2.17, but with PHP 5.4 and then PHP 6 on the horizon, we feel the time has come to upgrade. PHP 5.3 offers many useful new features, such as the new namespace language construct, as well as performance and security updates.
There have been a number of changes and new features in PHP 5.3, and it is possible that some older PHP scripts may break or encounter problems with the new version of PHP. Most major scripts should have been updated over the past couple of years to handle the differences in PHP 5.3. We would strongly recommend that users ensure their scripts are up-to-date.
If you’ve used Fantastico to install scripts in the past, you should be able to use Fantastico application in cPanel to seamlessly upgrade your scripts to the latest version. We do recommend taking a backup first, though, in the unlikely event anything goes wrong. If you have any queries, concerns or problems regarding upgrading old scripts, please submit a support ticket.
Hopefully the upgrade should result in few problems, but we would encourage you to check your scripts are up-to-date before we proceed with the upgrade, to ensure minimal disruption in the event you are running older software.

Bandwidth is a commodity. High price of international bandwidth traffic surely will cut ISPs’ revenue. Consumers are switching from DSL to fiber-optic and now want to view rich media content like Youtube and live streaming.
Youtube
To cope with bandwidth demand , TM already placed many Youtube caching server in Malaysia. No matter how many times you press the play button and choose high definition streaming - the caching server will supply you the cache. During AAG cable downtime recently, popular Youtube videos streaming fast like always. This is because of local caching servers are placed locally in Malaysia.
