The bot does the following:
Checks all the links in the first post of every topic. 28 supported hosts.
Color codes the links, i.e. red = dead link, green = alive link, orange = unchecked.
Adds a message under the original post indicating number of dead links and time they were checked.
Moves the topic to the bin if the percentage of dead links has exceeded a certain value.
Adds a reply to the topic indicating the topic was binned.

You can change the following in the ACP:
The bot's member ID
The forum ID's of those forums which should be checked
The forum ID of the trash can
The percentage of dead links above which the topic should be binned
The message the bot leaves in a topic if its binned

Following hosts are supported:
Rapidshare(both de and com) | Megaupload | Megashares | Mediafire
Netload | Easy-share | Sendspace | Filefactory | Depositfiles
Fast-load | Badongo | Uploaded | Uploading | Adrive | Files.to | Gigasize
Uploadpalace | Rnbload | Savefile | Ziddu | Megashare | Speedyshare
Turboupload | Cocoshare | Usaupload | Zshare | Filefront

this is because you do not have safemode off or curl on in your hosting account. so ask your host, if they do support safemode off and curl on.

Thanks for the reply. But my OS/PHP Linux not safe moded now.

Another problem for this, bot is running and moved to some alive links to trash.

Example: any megashares file.

More detailed thread with help. I also give instructions & such for set-up.

I am telling everyone right now if you are using a shared hosting site, this bot is 100% useless to you.

I run a DVD site strictly for Rapidshare & Megaupload. After checking 10 links the host shutdown the bot. To many requests.

It's great if you just host 10 files for your members to download & you want to check the links for them.

Change the permission in your config.php

// ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******

add ur admin id in $config['SpecialUsers']['canrunqueries'] = '';

Hope that helped.

Code:

if not hosting like RS,MU,MF will trace where the link came from (YOUR SITE) and remove it from their server. ;)
