The cron task writes to a file called foobar.txt in your forum root with the current time (to the second) each time a page on your board is accessed. Completely pointless, but it's an example. For this to work, ensure that a file called foobar.txt exists in your board root and that it is writable.
To access the front-page file, navigate your browser to index.php?ext=example
