i am going to answer this question with a quote from boldy on another board....
The remote server is not wide open. Its a cgi-script on your server which need to write to a certain directory which has to be 777, just because most apache servers run as nobody and can't do jack shit on the filesystem.
Second you have to put a password in our interface which is generated on the script you have to upload. These passwords have to match.
You can rename the script to any name you want. name it ajskhjasASDASasdjkashdka893489273myass.cgi and a hacker will have a hard time finding it.
The script is a readable perl script, feel free to analyze it and see for yourself we dont have any intentions of cheating on our clients.
Hope this helps
