The majority of hosting quick-install applications are written in PHP. PHP 4 and 5 are enabled for all Linux hosting accounts. PHP 5 is enabled for Windows hosting accounts running IIS 7, only. If you have a suggestion for a Windows-compatible application, email us at hostingsuggestions@secureserver.net.

If you have a Windows hosting account and the value application you want to install requires PHP 4, you can either purchase a new Linux hosting account or migrate your existing account from Windows to Linux. To migrate your hosting plan from Windows to Linux, see Switching Your Hosting Account Operating System.
