Yeah. Search for "cron" - you can customize the crontab to any period you want. Then a cron job can run your script every 2 hours.
Just for your info.
There is a slight difference between cron returned by google to the cron you implement on a shared hosting.
Technically, there isn't a difference.
But on shared hosting, you cannot access the shell directly, thus, you need to set the cron job through the cpanel or plesk, which is a more user friendly interface, to achieve the same result.
Logically, the cpanel version is more user friendly, thus, if you master the command line version, the cpanel should not be a problem.

every cPanel supports cron jobs. this basicly is a program witch runs on specific time interval /you configurate that/ and run a php file with the unlick function.

I was looking at the PHP site and found the "unlink" script
what I want is a time script to automatically unlink my "usernames.txt" file every 2 hours
Is it possible to do that?
Thanks
Simply create a PHP file with the unlink method and set the cron as: 0 */2 * * * /path-to-php-file
