Hi Mohammad,

counters are discussed controversely.
Most of the time they bother the users and
even more its boring to look at.
I think you relly want to know how many users
visit your site, thats fine but you simply
cant know it. You dont know if someone sees the
site off a proxy or does not load images or whatever.
The HTTP protocol was never designed for statistical
purposes!
You can get fine statistics showing your server load
and may be the most used pages thru a log file analyzer.
(webalizer, analog etc.)

Last not least there are some web-page-counter-hunter out
there ;) They call your counter as often as it can, so
you have obviously useless hits. So anybody visiting your site
would lough.

Regards
Tino
