Uninstall it, chances are you really don't need a personal firewall, its not going to be doing any help but consuming internet resources. ZoneAlarm is one of the not so good ones IMO....
I've seen alot of problems similar to yours with ZA and a few other free ones
It might be PSU related, but not in the way you think, it sounds like your computer and power supply are overheating during game play and shutting down.
Check and make sure all of your fans are working and that you have a heatsink rated for your processor.
Every company does that no a days, I stay away from everything low market end from HP, Compaq, Gateway, eMachines.
I use Dell for any non custom work I do, and they haven't lead me wrong so far, every big server I have is a dell box, even my home dev server is a dell, as well as my laptop.
They "prefer" .html pages over dynamic pages, but Google doesn't care, they spider forums just fine, take a look at vBulletin.com for example, ALOT is indexed
this is sorta old now... but danni as long as you know the root password for mysql you can install phpmyadmin on any webspace and have it connect (assuming it is allowed to connect from that site (if its local its not an issue)
They are all doing somthing important, don't worry :) (not that I know specificly off the top of my head, but alot of important sevices are started via that process)
Your monitor should not be effected by your power supply in the least bit...
The only thing I can think is that A) your video card doesn't have enough power to work, or B) you shorted something during the instalation of the new ps unit...
To be honest, I've never used fusetalk, or even been on a fusetalk forum. If possible I would try to run with a php/mysql or asp.net/other enterprise db type application :)
Who cares about the W3 Standars? Geeks who have nothing better to do with their time...
I'm being very serious here, follow the W3 Standards, but do not believe it to be the word of god.
I could spend a few months aruging, but the fact is, if your website, looks and works the same in every browser, It wouldn't matter if you had millions of errors.
Well like I said, if you are going to be running ASP.net apps theres no logical reason to run apache ;)
Abit more insight would help one way or another. Apache has been around a long time, and is a long standing httpd server in the linux world, less used in the windows world, since its time tested and tempered it has less security issues. It will run about par with IIS in terms of real world preformance at least in realition to php / mysql sites.
What sort of applications are you going to be running, do you have a choice between linux and windows or, windows running IIS and windows running Apache.
How much expirence do you have with IIS over apache?
Are you confortable with config files or do you need a UI ?
My company outsources to save money. Why pay Americans $20-40 an hour when you can pay folks in other countries $6-12/hour? American's don't need good-paying jobs. Except for CEO's. They need to earn $500/hour because they are so brilliant that they thought of outsourcing.
The best part is that someday we'll make robots that can do our jobs and then we can insource again; this time to machines earning $0/hour.
Prey that I never meet you in real life, or you will be a sad sad person.
Outsourcing can be a very good thing, if you are a company that makes printers, and you want to provide paper, too, why on earth would you try to get into the paper market? Instead, you would find another company, and outsource the work to them.
Like if you are a legal company and you want to get pens, you wouldn't create a whole new devision of your legal company to make pens, you'd oursouce the work to another company.
What happened is, they took it too far, outsourcing alot of jobs to other countries where language issues arise, like dell with their tech support, and as someone else said, hidden costs. Your overall customer satasfcation will greatly decrease when their are communitcation problems.
There is a reason to pay a worker 20-40 dollars an hour, they do it better. Why in gods name would you move your entire IT support devision to china and …
You said this, which means you are using a DIALUP connection, to connect to your VPN, which requires a modem, you want to use an exsisting connection :)
IE is going to win for me every time, its not crappy, it doesn't have UI quirks, and its intergrated into windows.
Firefox takes 2-3 seconds to launch on my pc, and it has those ui quirks, and its going to have its own hole slue of issues, sooner rather than later I think.
