I got the great people over at Arvixe.com to make the Cron job for me.

it's running ever */15 * * * * but i still have the error message on my Admin settings. "You still need to setup the cron job. Learn more" any idea why?

Greg, are you sure your cron is running? 

try to send mass mailing to users, while doing that open you phpmyadmin ->ow_base_mail table and see if the mails come and go out of this table, if they stay in the table - the cron is not working, if they go - cron is ok. 

As to the Json error - this has something to do with the ports. Can ypu please tell me what port you used for accessing your cpanel before configuring your cron jobs?
