Hey Steve, what's wrong with my account at OB?

Hmm...using both deny from all and allow from all? :)

That "deny from all" you're using denies everyone. I'm not sure what you're protecting, but I wouldn't recommend using it. Use this instead:

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti* */alice* */*.php*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from localhost
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
allow from localhost
</Limit>
AuthName www.mysite.org
AuthUserFile /home/deuteron/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/deuteron/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

If that doesn't work, replace localhost with your server ip.

this gives me a total forbidden error page.
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from localhost <----- had to change back to all

where would i insert this exactly, treid it in a few spots so far?

php_flag allow_call_time_pass_reference on

Well, using both deny from all and allow from all doesn't make sense. If you remove deny from all it should work.

nope sure doesn't martin, still getting the fopen crap, think its time to recycle the bot.... :=(

Is anyone trying to let this bot work in VBchat-shoutbox as well?

You had a bad email address that was causing bounced emails.

Installed. Works 100% the first time around, with no problems. :)

Tell your friend he's done a great job! :)
