Look at this file: /home/radangel/plugins/stats/functions.inc then go to line 341 for all errors the source of the problem is there.

I'll just unpack that file again and see what happens, I was able to log in via VNC to my workstation at work which was still logged in as administrator to my site and disable the stats plugin. Thanks for the idea.

Also review the setup guide for things like register_globals and make sure it set to on in the php.ini file, you can always [pass a command to set it to on if you isp trys to turn it off.

Also magic quotes and the like should be off.

Still messed up, I tried restoring from tape and I get the same thing.. I'll try restoring from an earlier tape and see what happens. Maybe it was another plugin that screwed things up.

You can get the gethostbyaddress error if you have an invalid address such as file://links.html. You can either delete that line from the database or on the line that calls gethostbyaddress put a @ directly before the call so that it reads @gethostbyaddress(.

The header problem is the old familiar whitespace problem. Look here

Ok, the @ in front worked.. but all the data for visitors is gone, and hasn't returned.. I can't find what table has all that data in it. All the hosts browser types etc.. is all empty check it out at www.radiationangel.org. Also, my menu plugin will not save changes anymore, add or delete menu items. Oh, just checked Forums, it's having the same issues that Stats did, where it shows the link, but you can't retrieve anything.
