Cossacks problem

[m1guel]

hi. I'v been having some resource problems in my server. There I have installed an wordpress blog, nothing more. I believe that I found the resource consumer. I'm having 50 visits per day by cossacks.com ... and I belive thats the problem ...
I'v only started having problems with resources since cossacks visits start appering.

Can you disable the cossacks visits to my server ?

It was your cron jobs by the looks of it - which Im guessing you have removed.

I don't know what cron jobs are but if I have removed them I dont know how
Can you please explaine that a little better to me ?
thanks

In cPanel you'll see "Cron Jobs", these are probably what are causing this.

Hi
How can I see if I have any cron jobs. Should I have any ?

You will notice the cronjobs tab under the Advanced category in the cPanel.

If you look at the names of the URLs that were visited by cossacks they had the word "cron" in, and as the server doesnt visit your site unless something makes it, theres only a few ways in which this can happen.

1. Some code within pages on the site, opens other pages on the site to retrieve information
2. Cronjobs
