actually my old ISP was that way, this one is different. I'm certian because I was able to make the same settings work on my portable.UPDATE:Restarting the computer fixed the problem, don't know if it will come back though...

This all started yesterday when I opened up Outlook express. It sat at the Send/Receive window for a time then told me the server wasn't responding, and I could wait or stop. Upon stopping I got this error: Now I've just switched to this ISP, and figured that maybe it was a problem on their side, and I'd let the problem wait a while. Later that day same thing happened, so I tried logging into their web based mail system, that worked. I used mail2web.com to access it, that also worked. I have a laptop on the same network, so I set up Outlook express in it, that downloaded the messages. So I have come to the conclusion that it isn't the ISP. I turned off the firewall and placed the computer in the routers DMZ, still nothing. And I have removed and reentered the account information several times. Though I may have to try it, switching to a different program isn't really an option as I am not the sole user of this computer and other people don't like change. Any thoughts?

I am looking for ome background mucis for an anniversary video. I really don't know too much about music so I thought I'd cast the net out there for anyone with ideas. I needs to be uplifting but not to modern, it's a 40th anniversary so the age of the people need to be considered.

I aggree it seems a little dark, I can see it fine but I know I built a site with similar colour layouts and I've come accross a few monitors that don't display it properly. Secondly It loads far too slow for people on dial-up The main image is 119 kb which I know doesn't seem like a lot, but it took about 45 seconds to load, 45 seconds in which I kept thinking Is there something wrong with me? or him? or the server? My browser says it's done, should I refresh? Now It appears to me that you did it as a CSS background, fine, but also that the image is 1200px wide, I'd assume that you did this to make it fit on more screen resolutions, however as was said add some borders around the text, perhapse if you did something like.... As you can see I made that whole image less then 100kb, so compression is definatly required. And one more thing, the greenish boxes beneth the "Localhost" don't appear anywhere else in the dessign. I personaly have nothing against them, but you've set them as a part of your dessign and then aren't using them elsewhere. I see you have a favicon, perhapse there, or as bullets for the list of websites. Other then that, I like it a lot, the water drops are very nice. I only which I could build something that nice in blender (I've tried). It is a very plain design, now in some refrences that would be an insult, but not here, you've accomplished a fair bit, and to still keep it plain, very good. Not to mention it cuts down on our bandwidth costs, as well as my lode time. Win, win.

I was trying to make a report for a post however when I submitted it I got ...

This post shouldn't be in what is... But I will answer none the less. A DDOS attack is a distributed denial of service attack. Not an attack through DOS, and this would be nearly imposable; DOS doesn't have the best network/internet ability (If it even has it at all). A denial of service attack is designed to deny service to a computer buy overloading its connection. When you make it distributed, you are making a bunch of computers attack one computer thus rendering it useless. This is done by "dropping" bad packets onto the internet in the direction of a computer. By definition the computer will respond, or else not respond as the firewall settings do. Either way this action will require some time on the part of your computer. If you can send enough bad packets at one IP address you can make it stop responding, or remove its ability to access the internet. Here is a site which goes into detail: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ EDIT: I see there is also a topic regarding this, here http://forums.xisto.com/topic/37204-what-is-ddos/

I'm looking at getting Xisto - Web Hosting account, and was wondering, If I were to get a cheep account now would I be able to upgrade it as my need increased?

If by 'it' you mean your free hosting I believe the answer is no. Somewhere in the TOS

Right I remember that now too, you don't get preformance improvements unless you are using a duo ready application, I think photoshop is an example, or you are running two processes at once.

I don't know not my favourite book, but still good. Yes the ending is great. Some of it is rather confusing.

The only time I'd be okay with this is if it were to be the propritory file format used in some Microsoft Image editing program like xcf for GIMP and psd for PhotoShop. In this case that'd be good not like macromedia addopting the png for fireworks and screwing it up, unless you "export".

I'd have to aggree with you there. Paint is good enough, there are many laternatives if you disagree, and besides if microsoft were to change it it would mean a complete rewrite, which would mean a .net based application, which from microsoft means a program that installs to 2mb, runs using 50mb and taks 3 mins to load!

I never thought of it thatway, what about putting on a forum?

Not my cpanel, but If (this is only an example) I offered website hosting, could I place adsense into my clients cpanels. I believe in that policy they refer to emails as in, Here is an email generated from my systems, oh look adsense in the header or footer. I was refering to placing adsense in peoples email inboxes, (If for example I was offering free email hosting, I know I can't at Xisto, but this is only an example) sorta like gmail, although obvously not as good.

I've been reading the adsense rules and can't find direct rules anywhere. Can I put Adsense in my user control panel, or user email. So, for example, on this site (assuming it is possable) could they put adsense into cpanel?
