GGI Y2K Statement
We have had many inquiries about the Year 2000 (Y2K) bug and the potential effect on GGI hosting products. Our Virtual Server and Dedicated Server software and hardware has never stored a 2-digit year-value within a date, so our hosting products will be immune from the Y2K bug. Our hosting products have continued to function as expected in the Year 2000.

The GGI billing system also has never stored a 2-digit year-value within a date, hence the Y2K problem will not impact your account with us. However, this does not mean that your own banking institution is immune from the Y2K bug. We advise you to check with your bank to inquire what program has been implemented to assure that your credit card will continue to work properly in the Year 2000 and beyond.

Server Add-On Y2K Issues
We have tested many of the software packages that we offer as Server Add-Ons for our Virtual Servers. Several of them are not Y2K compliant.

• http-analyze
  We have patched http-analyze so that it is Y2K compliant, but we cannot guarantee the performance of this patch. The patch has been applied to previously installed versions of http-analyze on all Virtual Servers. You do not need to re-install http-analyze in order to apply this fix. The previous version is not Y2K compliant and will not function correctly after 12/31/1999.

• MKStats
  We have patched MKStats so that it is Y2K compliant, but we cannot guarantee the performance of this patch. If you have previously installed MKStats you must re-install MKStats in order to apply this fix. The previous version is not Y2K compliant and will not function correctly after 12/31/1999.

• GetStats
  We have patched GetStats so that it is Y2K compliant, but we cannot guarantee the performance of this patch. The previous version is not Y2K compliant and will not function correctly after 12/31/1999.

If you are currently using http-analyze, MKStats, or GetStats to build statistical reports of your web site traffic, we strongly recommend that you migrate to a package that is Y2K compliant. Analog continues to be supported and is also freely available for easy installation on all Virtual Servers.
