the easiest way is to provide ur own tags... instead of <p align=center></p> etc....then u cancel html completely and convert ur own tags to the apropriate values when displaying... but if u insist on keeping it html, though i see no reason why, u can search and replace every tag u wish to keep with something like the using regular expressions (not so hard)..the killing all html, and then converting it back...

Actually thats not the case,Visual Basic is completely useless when it comes to coding anything subtle, worms or viruses or anything that needs to be well crafted. The main reason for this is: MSVBVM60.DLL.. i mean really, "i am sorry i cant start the virus, please install msvbvm60.dll so i can take over you computer, thanks in advance, the friendly virus." VB is only useful for quick and dirty (notice DIRTY) gui aplications for windows. thouse quick applications that it would be a drag to code in pure win32api because the main part of them is the interface and not the code.

Just wanted to add something...it'll be really short:"Never start learning programing from VB..."and if u can, stay away from vb for good...

true enough, personal computers dont usually get hacked by people,but by worms or other automatic tools, but i think we are going off the subject here.the subject was site protecting.. :mellow:and sites, depending on thier content can attract more serious and more skilled poeple to try and brake it.and i agree that security cant be perfect...

you are suggesting a good idea...though it will require some kind of gateway script that will make the request on the other script so it will originate from the server itself...otherwise the origin even on regular surfing is always from the user.what you are suggesting can be done, and ive seen it, its quite good protection...

hmmm...what exactly do you mean? cant be run by anyone?with what are you going to limit this? .htaccess? or chmod?and if no one can access it why does it exist?it seems odd to me, or i didnt quite understand what you ment?

to give you a kick start,python is a relatively new programming language (scripting lanugage). when i say relatively i mean relative to c++ and all.. its quite powerfull and can be used for alot of "quick tool creation" tasks, which could require tons of time in C/C++... the reason i mentioned it is, if you have physical access to the webserver, u could write a python script to update ur database whenever and however u want it to. dont know of any good python tutorials but the interpreter is at: https://www.python.org/

the receiving script, either php or asp, has no way of knowing if the user came from his own site or from nowhere,only by referer, which can easily be changed or faked to be as if it came from a ligitimate place. the real solution to the length problem should be inside the receiving script itself, for it is server side and cant be bypassed without changing its source.

Ok, so where exactly is your problem...in extracting the infromation from the remote site,or in parsing it to suit your needs?i assume its extracting it from the remote site,u can do it using a php script,but it has to be run by someone, to update the database,or you can make a local python script that sits on the server and does it for you.if u are ok with the php script, u can look for info about php sockets in http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ u need help with python.. ask...

there is a more common way to do it. <?php $test = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; echo $test;?> u can get alot of information about the user, u can use <?phpphpinfo();?>to get all the variables...

I played Fable too,it is a good game essentially, but it lacks some depth to the story,and it needs a multiplayer, badly...character development is quite nice, the spells and the arrow shooting is fun.but really, who makes an rpg game with only about 10 sets of armor avalible?or am i mistaken here, 'cuse i didnt see a varaity...i think the game is good for one go, quick finish and move on kinda way...

was just wondering, how many people here know/played muonline? it is basically a free mmorpg - massive multiplayer online role playing game where u can choose one of 3 basic classes warrior,wizard,fairy. and play in a huge world which keeps on updating together with other people. link is: http://muonline.webzen.com/events/season11-part2 if anyone played it, do post what u think of the game. personally i think its one of the best free mmorpg out there. it is large, has good graphics, vast landscapes, and tons of items not to mention its quite popular and it has its own user created market.

basically if u dont have any php scripts or anything that process user input, you should be safe as long as your web server is updated and protected. in case of a free web hosting, theres nothing u can do if the server itself gets hacked. And just a small remark about what Cassandra said, 2. HTML maxlength will not prevent long information from being sent to the processing script, it will just prevent it being sent from your form, which can be easily bypassed by sending a raw POST request or downloading and changing the maxlength of the field. hope this extra info helped
