Can confirm the last way of running SR worked for me. Until the domain name dies I guess.

the fall of one company...brings about the rise of another.

SR fails to even load for me now.

For me it works, just It needs more attemps. 5 - 10 attemps per day and only 1 is fully successful. Every unsuccessful attemp gets only 30 - 80% of all stats. (I use about 150 programs).

I recommend to have ST closed for long time between attemps.
For example if you have set ST to check your stats every 30 minutes you need to have close ST for more than 30 minutes before every attemp. (and of course every time do the list above)

I recommend Nifty Stats is a good and stable program

When SR will stop forever will still be better invest one hour per month to check all my sponsors manually than using Parallels + Windows + Nifty Stats.

2 more days until the statsremote domain expires. 1/27/2017

I am doing that, well, not really anymore. I miss SR...:(

either problem with support or the company might have sold or be going under. Unusual to not get replies from support.

Domain was renewed tho.

Most likely an auto-renew on the domain since it doesn't make sense to just renew the domain but not the SSL certificate.

Here is how to bypass the expired certificate and open statsremote...you need to download the certificate and import it into your java keystore...

download the certificate with openssl

open certfile.txt and only keep the -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- to -----END CERTIFICATE----- and save again

now find your java home directory and your cacerts keystore file


it will ask you for your keystore password


Enter Keystore Password: changeit

Trust this certificate? [no]: yes

Certificate was added to keystore


now you should be able to open statsremote and load your stats.


I'm not sure what happened to statsremote, but after multiple attempts to contact with no luck. I really hope that he is alright, I hope that by writing this...it might help keep this program alive. It really is a great program, well worth the money i've spent on it over the years.

I first tried to import the certificate into my java settings gui, and add secure.statremote.com to the exempt sites list. Then i tried setting my clock back, and i was able to open the program but it thought it was jan 5th or whatever....after i set my clock back i was still getting cert errors.

Anyways I hope this helps people, I really hope that statsremote shows signs of life. It would probably be smart to start moving over to Nifty Stats. I just downloaded it the other day, seems like the obvious replacement. I work mostly in adult, and it seemed like a pretty decent success rate and has some interesting new features. I just started using it, but if you haven't signed up yet

;) thanks

I've been out of the loop on GFY for a while but I can confirm that Neil has not been contactable for two months, by phone or email. As for why, I have no idea - but it's out of character for him to just disappear.

here's how to import the SSL certificate on a mac...

On PC it will not allow you to import an empty certificate via Portecle, any suggestions for how to solve this??

Do somebody have NiftyStats Coupon code?

well it shouldn't be an empty certificate, just expired...i'm not sure exactly about Portecle, youre using linux? i would just use keytool and like...find / -name cacerts

keytool -import -alias statsremote -keystore /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.79.x86_64/jre/lib/security/cacerts -file /root/certfile.txt

something like that...

No, I am not using Linux, I am using a PW/Windows 10 machine. And importing the expired certificate does not solve it.

ok then just do it like i said...or tell me why you can't use the two commands/programs i posted...and whats a PW

I need a coupon code too.

How is it possible that the guy who pays for the domain name doesn't notice he is missing about $20K per month in his payment account and go, oops, and fix this shit?

Many registars have options to add credit, so that could be reason why it auto-renewed.

I was using SR for ~6months several years before. When NiftyStats came out I gave it a try and still using and loving it. :pimp
