    question, is hostgator still good to use for hosting?

    Wish I would have seen this thread 48 hours ago. Problem after problem. First I signed up using PayPal but they didn't get the payment, yes it went through. So their registration process didn't complete and I was redirected to purchase a VPS on top of my hosting purchase. I contacted live...

    Another Weed Thread! (Shall I smoke and IM?)

    I smoked daily for 10 years. When I was 14 I got into IM. I started smoking daily when I was about 18. I was making about $3000-$6000 a week when I was 16-18 y/o. I started with friends but then started smoking at nights, by myself, on the computer doing IM at my parents house... blowing smoke...

    Yeah, wrong forum for this but I have the same thing man. I really don't want to reply here on this but I know how bad it sucks. It's called Hyperhidrosis. Seems kind of silly but it can change your entire life. Mine is/was from anxiety and once it starts, it don't stop until your some where...

    [C# Discussion] WebRequest or WebBrowser for web automation?

    Yeah, Awesomium is free and preferred IMO. It gives you much more control. Works very similar to the web browser but doesn't have as much overhead as the browser control if used properly. IMO, it's much better for threading the "browser". If your not worried about threading, then the browser...

    [C# Discussion] WebRequest or WebBrowser for web automation?

    HttpWebRequest inherits from WebRequest and was designed for Http requests. WebRequest is pretty much the base class for all web requests.. WebClient is basically a 'streamlined' version of HttpWebRequest to make certain things easier. HttpWebRequest is going to give you more flexibility though...

    Trouble Loading List / Trouble Logging In

    Try this... I switched it to a Sub instead of a function since your just populating 2 listboxes. Your also reading line by line, so there is no need to append "NewLine" character: "LineOfText = objReader.ReadLine() & vbNewLine" I'm fairly certain that is why your password was failing. Public...

    The Best Random Number Generator

    I put this together quick and ran a couple benchmarks. The main problem seems to be the seed, so I tried to use the RNGCryptoServiceProvider to generate a more unique seed. Here are the results: Using System.DateTime.Now.Millisecond to seed: 1-99 Test 1 = 97 duplicates Test 2 = 98 duplicates...

    Extract matching lines from .txt

    Not sure about Regex but here is a quick Sub I wrote specially for you. (I'm bored) I commented it so you can understand but basically Column A is your "emailATdomain" Column C is your "emailATdomain,name1" Column E is where your results are output. Make sure there are no blank cells or it...

    !! Need Help In Login Using HttpWebrequest !!

    Programming with the WebBrowser does suck... I couldn't find any up-to-date examples online but I do it with 3 requests. First, use Fiddler to decode and view the https (have to setup a certificate to read the https; fiddler has help on doing this) response headers. You need to mimic these...

    Web development suggestions please

    My first thought was Visual Studio .Net server-side... Javascript ( / TypeScript) client-side... however like any language, it takes time to learn. Once you learn it though, Visual Studio provides a rich set of features to rapidly produce quality websites and applications. There are many...

    So what do you guys think of TypeScript

    Heh, I never heard of TypeScript until this morning when I was reading Slashdot.... I played with it for a while on their website and I dig the syntax. It's still Javascript but much easier to work with. I'm looking forward to installing the VS2012 plugin and start developing with it. IMO-...

    Hiding AD over embedded Video HELP

    Try a hidden DIV/Link Z-Indexed and positioned Absolute to sit on top of the embedded video. When you click the DIV/Link, have it execute a piece of Javascript which in turn Collapses or Removes the DIV/Link from the DOM and opens your Pop-Up. Might want to have the JS auto-start the Video to...

    Protecting a bot - Whats best?

    I agree here. One thing I would add when speaking of server verification is: you only need to verify a user once, then locally store an encrypted key that represents them on your Auth server. Have your program randomly perform call-backs to the server from time to time with encrypted packet...
