How come I can't..

How come I can't get to https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=36991 ?

I'm a paying vB user and all - but I can't get to the store hack.

For confidential reasons that hack has sadly been removed via the authors request.

Then why can't get any assistance on my issue? I do know that it should work, but it will not.

Code:
$websiteuser['cwd']= dirname(__FILE__);

chdir ("$websiteuser['cwd']= /vbulletin");
include_once ("global.php");
$websiteuser['userid']=$bbuserinfo[userid];
chdir ("$websiteuser['cwd']= ");

define('IPADDRESS', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
$ipaddress = IPADDRESS;

// check several settings for the ip; good for not grabbing proxy IPs, but can still be problematic
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']){
define('ALT_IP', $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']);
}else if ($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] AND preg_match('#\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}#s' , $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'], $matches)){
define('ALT_IP', $matches[0]);
}else if ($_SERVER['HTTP_FROM']){
define('ALT_IP', $_SERVER['HTTP_FROM']);
}else{
define('ALT_IP', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
}

define('SESSION_IDHASH', md5($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . ALT_IP ));

//get ready to update the database no matter if registered user or not
$websiteuser['sessionidhash'] = SESSION_IDHASH;
$websiteuser['timestamp'] = time();
$websiteuser['ippaddr'] = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$websiteuser['id'] = session_id();
$_REQUEST['s'] = md5(microtime().session_id());
$websiteuser['current_location'] = $PHP_SELF;

//if the user is a registered user
if ($websiteuser[userid]){

if (!eregi("/vbulletin", $PHP_SELF)) {

$sql="SELECT * FROM user WHERE userid = '$websiteuser[userid]'";
if (!$result=mysql_query($sql)){
print "error at user lookup";
exit;
}
$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);
$websiteuser['username'] = $row[username];
$websiteuser['email'] = $row[email];
$websiteuser['usertitle'] = $row[usertitle];
$websiteuser['joindate'] = $row[joindate];
$websiteuser['lastvisit'] = $row[lastvisit];
$websiteuser['lastpost'] = $row[lastpost];
$websiteuser['posts'] = $row[posts];
$websiteuser['birthday'] = $row[birthday];
$websiteuser['pmunread'] = $row[pmunread];
$websiteuser['usergroupid'] = $row[usergroupid];
$websiteuser['reputation'] = $row[reputation];
$logged_in=1;
}
}else{
$websiteuser=false;//if no cookie, unset array
$logged_in=0;
}

?>

The problem is the user does not always get recognized. Cookie issues and all, this should work.

I have included $websiteuser in the vbulletin ignore list of variables to clean, but I'm about ready to neuter vbulletin altogether and see what happens next.

Will someone with any thoughts please reply?
