To upload banners/files, you need to use an “FTP client” software on your local system (e.g., FileZilla is a free one). To display the banners, you have to create/replace the index.html/index.htm/index.php file on your “html” directory with links to the banners you want to show. You have to use an HTML editor if you don’t know it’s syntax, preferably a WYSIWYG one (What You See Is What You Get).
May be some one replies you, but this forum is for/about the interworx-cp and not for the hosting issues. You have to contact your hosting company (mfhost) for support on things like these…
I guess with interworx 3.0 you could do automatic or (manual ?) updates for scripts that are installed from scriptworx (probably not for those installed by iworx 2.x , but I am not sure)
In 3.0 the scripts in the scriptworx system will be newer versions than those in the current release, however even in 3.0 you will still need to MANUALLY update any scripts you have already installed (e.g You have phpBB 2.0.15 and want the latest 2.0.22 you need to manually do the update of each installed instance of phpbb)

Here ya go, down and dirty upgade instructions for phpbb2
Download the newest phpbb release to your forum directory and unzip it (a new folder phpbb2 will be created). from the shell
cd phpbb2 (move to that directory)
Then rm -rf config.php (delete the new phobb config file so it does not overwrite the old one.)If you’ve made custom changes to a either of the default themes delete the theme directory as well rm -rf themes
[I]mv * …
Then run the updater from the web browser
load http://mysite.com/install/update_to_latest.php [/I](or whatever it’s called now, I’m not looking at it) in your web browser. Once the database is updated, run the following from the shelll[I]
rm -rf install
rm -rf contrib
rm -rf phpbb2
[/I]Then load the new version of the fourum forum http://mysite.com
There are some othe scripts you’ll be able to update this way, others will require more work or a slightly different procedure
