I would like to inform you about a small app that increases and secures internet speed, especially for external sites. You will be able to access web sites overseas as fast as a local site. The application is called FreeGate.

Create a good website

Do you want to build a quality site? Have you faced the problem of configuring the local server? I'll talk about the best free products on the market : Apache, PHP and MySql. If you are a novice, you will have troubles making these 3 programs work together. That is why a recommend to use a program that encapsulates all these : XAMPP. This is an Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl, very easy to install and use.
It provides a Control Panel, that comes in very handy in managing Apache and MySQL.
All you have to do is to download, extract and start using XAMPP. Now that you have a local server, you can start working.
Run Internet Explorer (or other web browser) and write http://localhost. This way you can see if your apache server is properly installed. Your site files must be located in C://xampp/htdocs.
Of course, you also need a good editor for writing the code for your website. I recommend, from the free editors, Notepad++. This is, in my opinion, the best free text editor at this moment.
If you wish more details on how to start building a site, please don't hesitate to write me your questions. I will answer you as fast as I can

Mounting CD/DVD images

If you like playing games, then, at least once until now, you must have faced the problem of mounting the image of a game(mostly .iso, .nrg, .cue, .bin and so on). If you use Nero, you must know that Nero Image Drive mounts .iso and .nrg.
But the fastest program for mounting images is Daemon Tools. It supports most of the image types, and it works very good. This version also has a great advantage: it's free.
Enjoy playing...

Games...old became new and...better

A few days ago i came across Mario Forever. I almost forgot the taste of this lovable small game....but after a few minutes all the passion came back. What a great game, brought back by this remake of the famous game in my younger days...
