troubles (no picture shown on stats page) if you use a directory called "icons" (because of Apache
pre-defined "icons" alias directory), so use instead, for example, a directory called "icon" with

<font style="color: #4444cc">SOLUTION:</font> When AWStats find an IP address
in your log file, it tries a reverse DNS lookup to find the hostname and domain
if the <i>DNSLookup</i> parameter, in your AWStats config file, is <i>DNSLookup=1</i>
