- TECH TIP: Protect Yourself Against Viruses and Worms
A new breed of viruses is rapidly
spreading across the Internet. Many of these viruses and worms appear as deceptively-innocent e-mails, which accounts
for their rapid spread. In addition to the damage they do to individual computers and networks, they also overload mail servers
and networks, which can cause delays and other problem with normal e-mail delivery. You can protect yourself (and the rest of the
Internet community) by following a few simple rules:

- TECH TIP: Reducing Spam
Unfortunately, it appears that the problem of spam is here to stay. As if that
thought's not bad enough, the volume and the offensive nature of this questionable
practice seems to be increasing at an exponential rate. We receive a lot of questions
about this problem and its solution. The short answer is that there probably is no
100% fool-proof solution, but implementing the suggestions that appear below can help
to reduce it. ... more
- TECH TIP: FUN WITH .htaccess
The Apache web server has a number of configuration options that are available
to the server administrator. In a shared hosting environment like ours, end users
don't have access to the main Apache configuration so you're stuck with the default
configuration. However, it is possible to override many of the default settings by

- TECH TIP: Protect Your Domain
Name Registration

name registration has expired, so the registration agency has disabled the nameserver lookup.

- TECH TIP: Understanding the Domain Name System
Let's say you want a domain name -- for the purpose of this explanation, we'll use adomain.com.
Let's break down what a domain name is first. And to do that, we'll need to break down and define what a URL is.
URL is an acronym for Uniform Resource Locator, which in layman's terms, means an internet address.

- TECH TIP: Choosing the Perfect Domain Name
In planning your online presence, the domain name choice is one of the most important
decisions you will make, particularly if you will rely on non-internet promotion to drive
traffic to your site. If you expect all of your visitors to come to your site by simply
clicking a hyperlink from a search engine or from other web sites, your domain name can be
about anything; but, if you expect any portion of your audience to manually type the domain
name into their browser's address bar, you'd better choose that domain name carefully.

Autoresponders
