i hope for you that your host have a forum or at least online support, because if you know nothing on what you do, you will have to ask them to install it for you...

if i had a good step by step guice i would be able to do itMake sure you have the correct files for your servers OS.

These are the instructions for the run-rime files. If this works, there is no need to have it installed on your server unless the product you are using does not support run time loading.









The ionCube Loader - Version 3.1
--------------------------------

This package contains the latest available Loaders for the PHP versions and
operating systems that you selected.

In the package you should have:

* Loader(s)

* The Loader installation helper script (ioncube-loader-helper.php)

* A file encoded with the ionCube PHP Encoder. This is needed by the helper
script (ioncube-encoded-file.php).

* The License for use of the Loader and encoded files (LICENSE)


Installation
------------

* INSTALLING FOR RUN-TIME LOADING

The run-time loading feature is the easiest way to run encoded files, and
lets encoded files locate and install the correct Loader when needed.

Provided that run-time loading is supported on the target system, encoded
scripts and Loaders can be bundled together without the user having to install
any Loader or update their system configuration, and without having to
know about the PHP version or operating system used.

For run-time loading to work, a directory called 'ioncube' containing the
Loaders (e.g. this directory) should be placed in or above the top
directory of encoded files. For example, if you have encoded files in
or below '/var/www/htdocs/', you might place the 'ioncube' directory
in '/var/www/htdocs' or '/var/www'. If you have an application or library
to distribute, you could place the ioncube directory within the top directory
of your project or library.

It's not working - why?
-----------------------

If encoded files fail to run with run-time loading, you can test this by
using the helper PHP script 'ioncube-loader-helper.php' that's included in
this package.

1. Copy the 'ioncube-loader-helper.php' and 'ioncube-encoded-file.php' PHP scripts
to a directory where you expect encoded files to be working.

2. Access the 'ioncube-loader-helper.php' script from a web server or with a
PHP cli or cgi executable.

3. Choose the 'Run-time loading installation instructions' option.

4. The script will try to locate and install the required Loader, and will
produce output as it runs.

5. Once complete the script will either report that run-time loading is working,
will provide instructions for how to correct any issue with the server
configuration, or will report that Loaders must be installed in the php.ini
file.


* INSTALLING IN PHP.INI

Installing in the php.ini file is also simple, and offers the best
performance for encoded scripts. It is also required for systems that use
safe mode, or if PHP has been built with thread support, e.g. on Windows.

The ' php.ini installation instructions' option on the installation helper PHP
script is provided to assist with this. Access the script from a web server
or a PHP cli or cgi executable and it should tell you which Loader to install,
which file to edit and what you need to add (it's just a one line change).

Assuming you need ion cube to run a hack... Assuming you have a windows server....

Assuming the ioncube files are in or above the directory the ioncube encoded file is to run in or lives in, the code should work.

If it don't, we need more info then what you have provided.

I hope you realize that vBPlaza was removed because it contained security vulnerabilities.

I hope you realize that vBPlaza was removed because it contained security vulnerabilities.He's referring to vbplaza 2.0 which has been released as a commercial mod not located on vb.org.

Which highlights the problem of encoded modifications - there is no way to know if those security holes were fixed.

BTW, you only need one of those ioncube files, the one that corresponds to your verison of php (so if you are running php 5.2.3, you need ion_loader_win_5.2.dll).

Then he should seek for support on the website that sold him the script.
