How do you install Search Engine Cloaker?

1.)  Download the software
On the URL that you were given after you purchased Search Engine Cloaker there should be a link that says "Download the software (content.zip)".  You will want to right click on that link and the click "Save Target As...".  Next choose the folder that you want SEC to be downloaded in.

2.)  Unzip the content.zip file
Locate the "content.zip" file that you just downloaded and double click on the file.  This should open up an "unzip" program to "extract" the 5 files that make up the software.  Next save those five files to the hard drive on your computer.  DO NOT EDIT THESE FILES.

3.)  Uploading the files to your website
Now that you have the five files saved to your computer it is time to upload them onto your server.  In a previous question we discussed how to upload files to a server.  You will want to reference that tutorial when uploading these five files.  You can either use a FTP program or your Web console through your hosting provider.  You will want to UPLOAD THE FILES TO THE CGI-BIN.  The "cgi-bin" should be located in your root directory (home, public_html, www).  If you can't locate the "cgi-bin" then look for something with "cgi" in the name and that is most likely your executable folder.  If the "cgi-bin" doesn't exist at all then it is most likely that you can just upload the files into the root directory.

4.)  Change permissions to 755
Now that you have the 5 files uploaded to your cgi-bin it is time to change the permissions.  Again, in a previous question we discussed how to change permissions through both FTP and using a web console.  You need to change the permissions for all 5 perl files to 755, which means you need to check the three "execute" boxes.  If your SEC install doesn't work, try changing your permissions to 777, which means that you check all the boxes.

5.)  Access the SEC control panel
You have finished installing the software, so now it is time to access the Search Engine Cloaker management console.  It is recommended that you turnoff any GoogleBar or Alexa installs that you have on your browser before you access your management console.  To access the console you will want to go to a URL that looks something like this:  http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/manage.pl.  The default password is "password".
