    Domain problem

    You need to wait up to 48 hours until the new DNS settings have propagated: your local dns server probably still has the old dns data, and it doesn't update immediately. (I had the same thing, I just had to wait 48 hours and then everything was fine.)

    What is the Purpose of Life?

    How can we prove our superiority to say, a dog, or other animal? They do not speak a speech like ours, yet how do we know they have a speech yet more complicated than ours? There is the argument that because animals can only imitate our speech, but do not know it's meaning, therefore they are...

    How fast is your processor?

    Not really. And FLOPS is a better measure of computer speed anyway. And for your info, I have a1Ghz Processor, which is usually turned down to 600Mhz by the automatic power saving functions.

    What CMS do you suggest?

    If you're making a simpler site I recommend sky blue canvas. It's really easy to use, although it is a more basic cms lacking features such as users, forums etc. (You can see my site, still under construction, with sky blue canvas in my signature.)

    Why Opera is not So popular being the coolest browser?

    Not quite: Firefox is FOSS, Opera is not in the slightest. If I want to modify Firefox in any way I want to, I can, not so with Opera. And Opera's cookie and javascript blocking isn't quite as good as in Firefox (using plugins that is), where I by default block both scripts and cookies, but only...

    How much RAM do you have?

    An amazingly large amount of 756mb is what I have. (One 256mb stick soldered in, plus one removeable 512mb stick, which could be upgraded up to 1Gb). It's something like PC2700.

    Why can't some people think for themselves?

    Depends where you are. Great Britain I can say most definetely yes (America I don't have a clue about, but I presume yes). Go a bit further east, in central Europe, and you'll find people are a bit more sensible. Precut bread is available, but not widespread. (You can actually get good bread in...

    Why Opera is not So popular being the coolest browser?

    Firefox seems to be more popular precisely because of its extensibility, (which kind of leads on from the fact that it's FOSS). I am one of those people who depend on that extensibility. I must say I miss the speed dial in opera though, and the plugin equivalent in firefox just doesn't cut it...

    What is the x10hosting nameserver I should use for co.cc?

    Actually, 48 hours is more correct: my server change (including name server change) took 48 hours until my main domain had been updated in the local dns server's cache.

    Emails sent by me landing in spam

    Hmm... those topics seemed slightly different, in terms of mail not being accepted at all. And the only blacklist (apews) I could find the server was listed on isn't actually used by gmail or hotmail, so it seems to be more to do with the lack of PTR records for my domain. However the server now...

    Emails sent by me landing in spam

    I just discovered the x10 server is on one blacklist, see: http://www.apews.org/?page=test&C=131&E=277009&ip=69.162.111.26 Could this be something to do with the problem?

    Best CMS for a gaming site?

    Joomla is nice and simple to set up, but you might also want to consider Drupal. I do much prefer Joomla for making community sites though, since it offers great plugins like CommunityBuilder and now there are quite a few forum plugins too, as well as gallery plugins, which are all quite easy to...

    how to insta wp on webhosting ?

    You need to go onto your cpanel account, and under MySQL databases you can add first of all a new database, then a user to use this database. You can use this info to access the database you have just made.

    Emails sent by me landing in spam

    Emailing the companies is a bit beside the point, since I don't know who I will be sending mail to in the future, and then there's private mail servers etc. The problem with PTR is that there can only be one domain per IP address (the PTR is IP specific, not domain specific), this needs to be...

    Emails sent by me landing in spam

    I already had the spf set up, and it doesn't seem to do much. I might try setting up an smtp server at home to see if that changes things. Is there anything else I could try? Edit:// Going through the Microsoft spf wizard, I discovered there are no PTR (reverse DNS) records for my domain. Could...

    What's your favorite (free) FTP Client?

    I use D3lphin, (one of the two KDE file browsers). The main reason is that it integrates perfectly with the rest of my desktop, i.e. the ftp folder is simply another folder that I have open, making work easy. I have however used both gFtp and fireFTP (a firefox plugin) before.

    Which Operating System do you prefer?

    Debian based Linux all the way. Currently I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 with KDE 3.5, (it was installed via debootstrap, so technically it's not a full kubuntu-desktop since I don't have any kubuntu named packages installed). On my other laptop (which shall soon be a home server) I have Debian Etch...

    Emails sent by me landing in spam

    I just set up an account here and added my TLD, and have also configured my mail client to send mail thorugh the SMTP server. Unfortunately, any mails that I send end up in the junk mail box in Gmail / Hotmail / Gmx etc. Is there anything I can do to get around this problem?
