@ is suppressing the E_NOTICE error message that the variables are not pre-set. This is BAD if register_globals is ON as it means that somebody would use: http://example.com/example.php?hits[user|192.168]=10000 to forge the hit counters The rest of it is just funky array indexes, and the ++ operator to add 1 to each thingie.
