Update the install .html with:

If you are executing this file using SSI, you must add the location of your PHP binary to the top of the googlebot.php (i.e. #!/usr/local/bin/php), and googlebot.php must be CHMOD 755.

The one thing that I thought was kind of ->un-cool<- was you added output to the html pages via googlebot.php. So upon execution, the bot will see:

CJ GoogleBot Activity V1.0 is running on this site
<!-- CJ GoogleBot Activity V1.0 is running on this site -->

I am cool with self promotion, but not in the search engine game. If the above was used as an indicator by the Google people for blacklisting or deeper inspection, a large number of people would be penalized unknowingly.

My comments, should always be deemed as constructive criticism, I am not in the game of slamming people's work.

This too should not be looked upon as flaming. What is the purpose of having a self-promotion tagline when the "stats" aren't publicly displayed?
