A cronjob is a command that your host should set for the ucjdata.cgi with the result that it gets started every 2 minutes, updating your trade-stats.
Just mail your host and tell them to set it up, they should know what it is.

cron is a demon that lives inside your linux box.

You never heard of him on Buffy The Vampire Slayer?

Better to learn the stuff yourself than rely on an admin to do it for you.. IMHO.
