Description:
------------
Many webhosting companies and not only have a lot of problems because of the ability of users to include remote files. This can be stopped by disabling allow_url_fopen but that will also stop to fopen () remote files. This is widely used by a lot of scripts and users get angry all the time if we disable allow_url_fopen.

All these things can be solved by creating an option in php.ini to allow administrators to disable users to include remote files. Thank you.
