+Before running the client for the first time, be sure to:
+
+ 1. visit the Uptimes project's web site and register yourself
+	(WWW: http://uptimes.hostingwired.com/newuser.php).
+ 2. log in (WWW: http://uptimes.hostingwired.com/login.php).
+ 3. Add your host (WWW: http://uptimes.hostingwired.com/account.php).
+	It is very important that you do not lose the generated key
+	since, for instance, they are no way to get it back by any way.
+
+Note that in order to send your uptime information to the uptime server,
+you hosts need more-or-less full-time Internet access.
+
+You will also have to edit %%PREFIX%%/etc/upclient.conf:
+
+  - AuthKey is the ID you've received when you added your host.
+  - Interval is the amount of time between each update.
+	(WWW: http://uptimes.hostingwired.com/protocol.html).
+    Don't set this higher than 10 minutes, or else your host
+    won't appear in the list.
+  - UptimeServer is the Uptimes Project's data server, currently
+    uptimes.hostingwired.com (Since the official Uptimes Project's
+    server has been terminated, uptimes.wonko.com and data.uptimes.net
+    must not be used anymore.  So, please, take care about that).
