PHP: Website Scripting Language

IonCube: PHP Encoding Software
To protect and improve the performance of our software, we encode it using either IonCube or Zend. Before using our software, you need to install the free IonCube loader. You can read more about our IonCube requirements on our wiki or you can find support on IonCube's website.

Zend: PHP Encoding Software
To protect and improve the performance of our software, we encode it using either IonCube or Zend. Note: soon we will no longer support Zend. Before using our software, you need to install the free ZEND loader. You can read more about our encoder requirements on our wiki or you can find support on Zend's website.

MySQL: Database Management Software
The leading open source database powers Too Much Media products. Current versions of TMM products require MySQL 5.1, which can be downloaded for free. Our wiki describes the MySQL settings you need to enable and you can always check MySQL's extensive documentation.

CVS: Version Control Software
We distribute our web-based products to your server using the Concentric Versions System (CVS). Your host can easily install this free software program on your server. You don't need to configure or use it—it's just for our benefit.

GeoIP: Geo-targeting Software
MaxMind's GeoIP system pin-points the physical location of the consumers that visit your server so that we can build advanced statistical reports. Although MaxMind has an purchasable product, we only require the free version. You can visit their website to download their product.
