I used to use Winamp, it was so user-friendly and easy to use. Very easy to add tracks and create playlists. Now I use Windows Media Player. It's not as user-friendly, but I like its slick interface.

Hi all, I'm having a huge challenge combating those comment and referral spammers. I operate a blog on my website, it's powered by Movable Type. I've always faced the problem of comment spammers which their automated bots spamming my comments script. It's seriously wasting my space and my bandwidth. Already my mail has been flooded with those useless comments notifications and it took up some 80 mb!I looked around in the mail folder and decided not to touch anything, in case it screwed up. Is there anyway to reduce the amount of space taken up by the mail folder?I once solved the problem using .htaccess to give those bots a Forbbiden page when the comment form input contains keywords such as porn, casino and so on. However it seemed to have caused a server error problem since the admin reset the servers so I had no choice but to remove the commands.I followed what other websites are saying about using .htaccess to fight comment spam, it seems to work a bit but there's this particular spammer which cannot be caught by my .htaccess.I need advice, how so I use back the previous method of giving those bots a Forbbiden page when the comment form input contains the keywords, without causing a internal server error? What should I write in my .htaccess?Thanks for any help in advance! I'm really angry at those spammers

What Is The Best Antivirus Program?
jcguy replied to silentkarma1405241502's topic in Security issues & Exploits
I would say AVG Anti-Virus is a good and highly competent free anti-virus software. It has so many good features and is capable of defending any machine that it beats some of the non-free software out there. It's free to receive updates and new info about newest viruses too. http://www.avg.com/de-de/free-antivirus-download I highly recommend it. -
Disk Space Problem A couple of problems with disk space.
jcguy replied to infamousflame's topic in Web Hosting Support
I'm having the same problem. cPanel sent me an email saying that I've used up 150% of my disk space and I'm quite sure that I've not exceeded my limit yet. I think it's a small problem on the server configuaration part. In any case, my hosting account's not suspended yet. So I think it's not a big problem. -
Come to think of it, does the server automatically recognise index.html and use it as the homepage? Do all servers recognise index.html? And how does one go about getting the server to recognise, say, homepage.html as the homepage? thanks in advance

Poll: Which Is The Best Os Pick The Best OS
jcguy replied to Hardy Boy's topic in Websites and Web Designing
I agree that Windows is the best OS for newcomers and new users of computers. It's easy to use and user-friendly. I tend to think of Linux as catering to computer geeks and the really computer-savvy people, and of Mac as catering to professionals working in media and design. -

jcguy replied to jcguy's topic in Web Hosting Support
Thanks for the info! I really appreciate your help. Now, however, my entire site is not accessible. It gives the same 500 Internal Server Error, even if I surf to my homepage and not my cgi-bin. See it here: http://www.coolbusinessideas.com/. Are there any other users who encounter the same problem? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. -

Openoffice Vs. Microsoft Office Which is better?
jcguy replied to rhodesian.dragon's topic in Software
I've used Microsoft Office all my life, but when I upgraded my computer some weeks ago and couldn't get an original CD of Office to install, I was forced to install OpenOffice. I would say it's a wonderful product, considering that it is open-source. Obviuosly much time and effort was spent on developing it. However, it took me some time to get used to it. In the end I installed Office and forgot about OpenOffice. -
Is Your Internet Speed Good Enough Vs. Cost ?
jcguy replied to Cookiemonster1405241499's topic in Websites and Web Designing
I pay about 80 US bucks for a 2.5meg broadband connection. The quality is good, but I wish the price could be cheaper. It's expensive here in Singapore because the cables are owned by a duopoly. But wireless broadband is going to be offered here real quick and I expect prices to drop drastically. That's the merit of competition. -
Is Astahost Hosting This Good ? :)
jcguy replied to Cookiemonster1405241499's topic in Web Hosting Support
I can testify to the extremely high level of free web hosting being offered at Xisto. Almost 100% uptime, plenty of disk space and bandwidth, unbeatable features. Consider the $0.00 price tag and the friendly forums here, you'll find Xisto one of the best, if not the best, free webhosts around.The only thing is you've gotta be active and contribute. But that's not very hard too. -
It's only right that Microsoft quickly comes up with a new version of their IE browser, seeing how alternative browsers such as Firefox and Opera have gained much market share since IE 6.0. The tabbed browsing way is so popular with Firefox users, I'm not surprised that Microsoft has decided to include it in IE 7.0. I wonder when will it be released.

The Bad Side Of .....google things you never heard
jcguy replied to harriko's topic in Search Engines
Some of the creators of such websites are genuinely concerned about a problem and they want to highlightt it to others, while there're some that just are jealous and want to ruin the reputation of cerain companies. We should all evaluate these warnings and websites objectively. -
If I'm not wrong, the emails that get sent to your email addresses while you're suspended will be stored on the mail server. This means that once you're able to access your account, you can still retrieve your emails from your server. I'm not very sure either, but it should work this way.
