All these scripts should have the .php extension, and the file should have 755 permissions.
Don't forget to change the first few variables to the beginning of the scripts to match your site details. Also note, that you will need to set-up a cron job via your cPanel, with a path to the script such as "php /home/username/path-to-the-php-script" (without the "" and replacing path-to-the-php-script with your actual path to it).
That's it, enjoy!
Regards Jason :)
