PHP HtmlEntities for UTF-8 Characters
If you just use simple PHP htmlentities function with one argument, you will notice that when you pass string that contains UTF-8 characters, the result is incorrect leaving you with some incorrect characters on the result.
To use it correctly, use this code 
htmlentities($your_string, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');

My Proxy List Script and ProxyNoid
I made a free proxy list script about 1-2 years ago which is called “proxycoder script”.
I haven’t continued to develop it for a long time. Recently Oxuro, owner of ProxyNoid.com contacted me at DigitalPoint and told me that he has done some modification to my script. He kindly asked if i can include his modification on the next proxycoder script or if i can give him permission to distribute his modified script. I chose the second choice, i will be happy to see my script to become a well developed proxy list script.
From now, i give permission to ProxyNoid.com to distribute the modified version of my script.
Good luck, Oxuro

Because rebuilding search index was a painful process for my forum, i was thinking to use sphinx search engine for my vBulletin forum.
So first important point is : if your forum has lot of posts, you’d better to use Sphinx. But if your forum has small amount of posts, you do not need Sphinx search engine.
