Problem
When I tried to delete a domain in Helm, it fails and in the HELM’s error log, I get the following error:
Domain creation error:

Solution
1) Make sure that in IIS there are no websites set up like “Site #245″ or “Site #388″ – anything with the # symbol followed by a number. These are partially created sites that may cause issues with Helm. If there are sites like this, delete them from IIS (right-click the site and choose “Delete”).
2) Go to:
C:\\Helm.Config
and rename the IIS.xml file to another and or simply delete the IIS.xml file then try again with your account deletion.

Just run the command below on your command prompt and
reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Silverlight
You will have the result as below
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Silverlight
Version REG_SZ 3.0.40818.0
UpdateConsentMode REG_DWORD 0×0
My Silverlight version is 3.0.4

This is not my first day having problem with Streamyx broadband . I am using Streamyx’s 512kbps packages and I can almost browse all websites in the world but I can’t login my Windows Live Messenger, Hotmail account and I need to restart my router a few times in order to login.
I am certainly and perfectly 100% sure that I am not having slow connection problem or lagged connection because I am the only user using this broadband at home.
This is what I get when attempting to login to my WLM account. Troubleshooting it does not solve even the problem as it is not due to key port problem.
In case there are possibilities that my own firewall might have blocked the connection, I can prove that there is no such possibility as I have already added Windows Live Messenger as allowed application into the Exception list.
I am speechless for today as I am tired of rebooting my router again and again for logging in to my Windows Live Messenger or my hotmail account.
Below is my ipconfig result. 
In case you realized that I am using OpenDNS servers for my DNS server. I have switched from default Streamyx’s DNS and OpenDNS and I have no idea what is going wrong with my broadband.
I am not a type of person that like rant about a fact that is too factful that Streamyx is really sucks to the max when providing users a broadband services. I am just requesting for broadband that allow me to have decent speed and allow me to access my simple, normal, basic application such as Windows Live Messenger and my email account.
And thanks to Streamyx I gotta reboot my router again and again. Maybe that’s why they gives us free wireless modem so that we can reboot our router anytime and anywhere.

A self-proclaimed grey-hat hacker has located a critical SQL injection vulnerability in a website belonging to security giant Symantec. The flaw can be leveraged to extract a wealth of information from the database including customer and admin login credentials, product serial numbers, and possibly credit card information.
The flaw was found by a Romanian hacker going by the online handle of Unu, according to whom an insecure parameter of a script from the pcd.symantec.com website, allows for a blind SQL injection (SQLi) attack to be performed. In such an attack, the hacker obtains read and/or write permission to the underlying database of the vulnerable website.

Have you ever wonder how to restrict your Wordpress Dashboard login via IP address or IP ranges? You could possibly would like to refrain some user from accessing your Wordpress application especially WPMU where it is shared by multi users from all over the world.
Just create a .htaccess file and put it on your wp-admin folder and add below syntax as example below.
allow from “IP address or IP ranges”
The IP ranges added are the IP address that is allow to access the wp-admin folder or the Wordpress Dashboard.
———————————
<Limit GET HEAD POST>
order deny,allow
allow from 192.168.1.0/24
allow from 192.169.1.0/24
deny from all
</LIMIT>
———————————

I am sure most of you have received the messages posted your friend’s Facebook update that sounds like this
“Go to any Facebook page and click once in a white area just to get a blank timeline to do this with. Press up arrow, up arrow, down arrow, down arrow, left arrow, right arrow, left arrow, right arrow, B, A, then the Return key.”
Give it a try and you will get the same result as my screenshot over my Facebook account below. 
This won’t be like the forwarded email like clicking Alt+F4 or Alt+F5 then nothing comes out.
