    Paying attention whilst reading/examining in detail. In two words "study carefully". What's the project?

    What do you hate?

    Another one: Idiots who drive too close at night in their crappy new shape Range Rovers with the bright headlights... *insert random expletive* Who then overtake in a fashion that results in them exceeding the speed limit by quite some margin.

    What do you hate?

    I hate people to stay in the outside lane on the motorway doing 65 when there's nobody next to them in the other two lanes, meaning you either: a) stick behind them until they see sense [legal] b) stick behind them way too close and possibly flashing your lights etc, sound the horn... hey...

    Newsletter or eMagazine?

    I get enough stuff to read as it is. Personally, I'd prefer an infrequent newsletter detailing x10Hosting specific information, a competition, any other particularly useful information, and maybe a link to one or two useful tutorials/sites.... maybe tutorial of the week, or something. Useful...

    New web site layout.

    Well, I hate to agree with leafypiggy, but it does require some changes. Thing that strikes me is the sentence: Really doesn't inspire confidence, and people usually want to be confident they're making the right choice before parting with money! Just out of interest, what's NKY?

    what is the worst virus you've had?

    Avast warned me about some emails in Outlook that used Frames, but they were sent ages ago, from the BBC's 'send to a friend' service. Umm, that's about it really. Downloaded stuff that's had a virus in the past, but didn't install it... don't know if that counts.

    Quick Design in PS

    Haha, yes, I was joking around. Umm, thanks for the compliments! If I was being serious I wouldn't have used Jokerman and Comic Sans.

    Norton (Symantec) Vista UAC Replacement tool

    From their FAQ: Check it out. There is also a checkbox in the installation process allowing you to disable the information they collect (for privacy purposes), however, it's a free product designed not only to reduce how annoying UAC prompts can be whilst still keeping your PC secure, but...

    Windows VPSs?

    Hypothetically speaking (as I'm skint ;) )... What if I've got my own (geniune and valid) Windows server licence?

    How to set up forward/reverse proxy in apache?

    Only way I have been able to do that is using my routers IP forwarding, then using my external IP from inside the network; the router's set up with NAT loopback functionality so it works. Not quite http://localhost/ , but close enough, maybe? Doesn't leech any bandwidth quotas that may be...

    GeForce 9400GT. Is this good?

    Hmm, I was going to say I have a GeForce 8600GT, and it's fine for anything I've thrown at it so far, and it'd be logical for the 9400GT to be better, but according to these guys, the 8600GT is better..... http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=82328 I can't vouch for the knowledge and...

    What sort of life...

    What sort of life would you rather lead: ( a ) a 'safe' life, where you have more of a chance of getting really old; or, ( b ) a shorter life doing something dangerous that's really REALLY fun, like... stunts on a turbocharged superbike, with the probability of having an accident and dying...

    The Death Clock..

    Re: The Death Clock... I'll be 88, just shy of my 89th birthday... That's even worse, considering how things start to go wrong when you get old. End up with replaced hips etc, dementia, poor hearing, poor eyesight, constantly reminiscing about the 'good old days'... Noooooo! :rant2...

    FLyFF

    I was never a fan of the typical games in this genre... Heard of a massive online dimension game more like CoD that sounded promising, but can't remember what it was called. I just don't like the whole drag'n'drop type gaming. Command & Conquer for example.
