Open Question: How viable is this for a business idea?
I'm sure most of you have heard of development communities for different programming languages and MMORPG games. What I'm wondering is this. Is it a good idea to start up a development community as a business? It would be primarily driven by advertisers buying ad space on the site and forums, which I know would require the site to be hugely popular for anyone to even consider it. But, I'm wondering if I should go for this.
My idea is to open up a MMORPG development community for different MMORPG games as well as other programming languages such as Java, C/C++, Perl, Python, etc and let it get popular and sell ad space to advertisers. Then get together a team of people and offer web and graphic services and other technology related services such as hosting, techincal support, etc.
Would this be a good idea or am I just out there in make believe land? I'm interested in starting something like this but I'm not sure how to go about it and all.
Opinions, thoughts?
Thanks,
Bryce.
I'm looking to actually form a business around this idea. Not to get a 'get rich quick scheme'...

Open Question: Why Can I Not Connect To Bittorent or Limewire? I have disabled firewall and have antivirus!!!!?
I Cannot connect to Bittorent 6.1.1 or Limewire 4.18.8. I have disabled my firewall, I have disabled antivirus software and I have opened all the necessary ports 6881-6999. I also made sure these programs had the appropriate permissions and unblock settings.
Everything was working fine a few days ago.
I installed a windows update: Service Pak (not sure if it was 1 or 2) I think it was 2. It was working fine
I also upgraded to Bittorent 6.1.1 ( I THINK THIS IS WHEN IT BEGAN TO FAIL )
I've tried every other Torrent client available on the internet and I still get NO SEEDS NO PEERS. It simply will not allow me to connect to any Hosts
I cant even check for updates, I get a message saying " cannot connect to Bittorent Update Server" .
When I click on the speed test option and choose to see if the listening ports are open, It tells me they are closed.
I opened all these ports in windows as well as through my router. Still doesnt work.
All other programs that connect to the internet are working perfectly MSN MESSENGER, ITUNES FIREFOX SAFARI ETC.....
Except INTERNET EXPLORER, it will not load a web page, cannot connect. SO WEIRD!!!!!! considering all options are at default and all my other browsers work fine.
As for Limewire, I cannot login. Even when my firewall is turned OFF I still see a firewall icon in the bottom left hand corner of Limewire. when I drag my mouse over it I see "limewire has detected a firewall"
I have searched all my programs and i don't have any other programs that can block programs. ( At least I don't think i do unless they are somehow hidden)
Not sure why all of a sudden these programs don't work.
ANY IDEAS??
THIS SOUNDS TERRIBLE BUT I REALLY MISS SHARING FILES

Guys read my Post!!

Open Question: How do I set Yahoo! Mail as my default E-Mail client! (LONG)!!!?
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium using Messenger version 9, although I have tried installing previous versions of 8.X from oldversion.com and those versions are also giving me the same trouble)! But let's stick to 9 as that is the version I'm using now...
I finally got a reply back from Yahoo technical support regarding this missing "Yahoo Browser Services" application. They said they are no longer including this in any version of messenger and in order to make Yahoo! Mail your default E-mail client on your computer, you must include "install toolbar" when you install messenger (apparently the toolbar now has a Yahoo! Mail default E-Mail client setting in it)...notice that I said "APPARENTLY"! However when including the toolbar in the messenger installation it does not actually install any kind of Yahoo! Mail plugin. After installation I attempted to verify if my default E-Mail client had been changed by going to the default programs section in Windows Vista and sure enough, Yahoo! Mail was NOT listed (in ANY of the sections/catagories)!
I then uninstalled the toolbar and reinstalled it via toolbar.yahoo.com and this time the installation works (during the installation it asks you if you want to install the Yahoo! Mail plugin to make Yahoo! Mail your default E-Mail client). Finally I thought I had found out how to get this installed correctly (but not quite)! Before I get into that let's address how the toolbar that is part of the messenger installation is NOT installing the mail plugin like the technical support guy told me it would. Only if you install the toolbar seperately from messenger by going to toolbar.yahoo.com does it then install this mail plugin! All of these problems that I 've currently noted so far (in this post and the previous post that I have linked here above) clearly demonstrates that Yahoo has NO CLUE what they are doing!
OK so now I finally have this "mail plugin" installed and I'm thinking great now I can finally use mailto: links on the internet (as I had previously been doing using previous versions of messenger (before 9.0 they all included the "Yahoo Browser Services" plugin/installation). Well once again I was proven WRONG!
Before I tested out to see if it now worked I went to the default programs section once again in Vista (under the control panel). Under "associate a file type or protocol with a program" I scroll down to the "protocols" section and for the "mailto:" it now shows that Yahoo! Mail is set as the default E-Mail client HOWEVER the icon that is used is NOT the offical "Yahoo! Mail" icon, instead it's some tiny square icon with a tiny picture of what appears to be a picture of two 'gears' inside the icon box (right there a red flag went up with me)! Anyways keeping the "mailto:" protocol highlighted I then click on "change program" at the top of the window. When this window opens up, it clearly shows Yahoo! Mail (WITH THE CORRECT YAHOO! MAIL ICON-mailbox with a "Y" over it) as one of my default choices for E-mail, along with Windows Mail. I click on the Yahoo! Mail icon however that doesn't seem to change the icon back in the main display, it continues to show a pictured icon with two tiny pictures of 'gears' inside it.
To make a long story short (and I'm really sorry for the legnth of this but this is clearly Yahoo's problem and fault) I'm only now 50 percent closer to being able to use "mailto" links correctly with Yahoo! Mail on the internet. When I now click on a "mailto" links on a webpage, a "internet explorer security" window pops up (yellow banner at the top) and it informs me that "windows host process (rundll32)" wants to access the internet and the publisher is Microsoft! There is a check box at the bottom of this popup window "do not show me the warning for this program again" however the check box is greyed out and I can't place a check mark in it! Anyways clicking on "allow" for the secuirty window then loads up Yahoo! Mail!
So basically now anytime I want to use a "mailto: link on the net, I have to go through this damn "internet explorer security" window to get to Yahoo! Mail and it's EXTREMELY annoying!!!
If I go into the "security" tab for IE (sorry but I don't use other browsers) and I uncheck the "protected mode" option at the bottom of the screen, when clicking on "mailto" links on web pages it then takes me straight to Yahoo! Mail with no inturruption of that security window popping up...however being out of "protected mode" is making my computer to be more unsafe...that is not 'flying' with me at al!
To end this, there is obvioulsy a HUGE flaw in Yahoo's program and it's clearly NOT WORKING RIGHT! I have Googled this problem and I can't find any solution to fix this (without compromising my computer's security).
I'm begging anyone...CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME HERE TO GET THIS FIXED? Yahoo is clearly 'out of the loop' on this and either have no idea what is going on with their own software, or they want to act a
Yahoo cut me off with my post, there was more at the end but apparently they have a character c ount (thanks for telling us that ahead of time Yahoo!) You just keep sending in the 'punches' to everyone, don't ya?
Voting Question: How can I contact the owner of a website?
I found a website I am interested in purchasing. The domain name is registered, but no one is using it. I looked up the owner in the who is database, but the email and phone number are out of service. Is there another way to get a hold of the owner that I may be overlooking? There is information on the host of the web page which is just an Australian company, should I contact them? The owner is also Australian, if that matters. Any help on how I might acquire this domain would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Resolved Question: (UK) Legality of collecting donations and advertising revenue from a website.?
(This is a question for people in the UK familiar with Tax and Law)
I am planning to open a website which will generate revenue from :
> Advertising.
> Registration.
> Services.
> Donations.
I'm working full time and pay tax and NI properly, earning over £25,000 a year gross. This website would be a personal money maker and I want to know what tax I will need to pay on the earnings from the website given that the web hosting package itself has a fixed running cost per year of around £400 to £600. I do not have a "business" but would be willing to set one up providinng there were no additional costs and there were clear benefits in doing so.
I'm not familiar with anything like this and want to get a good idea of what is and isn't legal before I start. The more detail, the more points.
Thanks in advance.
Voting Question: Should I buy domain from my web host or from separate domain website?
I am planning to get a domain. I have a web hosting service. I would like to know if I should buy one from separate domain site (like Yahoo) or from my web host?
What if I change my web host? would I have hard time getting my domain as well if I buy from them? Do they charge a lot for domain, when you change the host?
Resolved Question: I have q's about domains and hosting?
I am trying to start a work-from-home biz and need to clarify a few things. I know I need a domain name. I don't know if I need to buy one, or if I can use a "free" one?
I also know I need a web hosting service. I am aware of the many shortcomings of the free hosting srevices. I am asking if I can use my free domain name and a paid host? Or, what are the ramifications of mix-and-match?
Should I just go ahead and bite the bullet and go for the paid host and buy the domain name?
Once I have cleared this up, how would I address all of the various pages, etc? I am trying to set up to do affiliate-network marketing.
I Obviously need help.
Thank you in advance for your help.
For clarity: I will bee adding my affiliate to many webpages. As people click to the site, or buy the program, I get paid. I don't as yet have a webpage of my own design, I do have free webpages that others have given me for free to promote their products.

Please don't answer with question/comments about the video file (it's over 20 minutes, let's just say that), just relpy with some free site links. So anything that allows 5GB file uploads BESIDES MegaUpload/MegaVideo. Thanks! :)
Resolved Question: local service host connection-when I restart my computer, my connection log shows an in/out bound connection?

Voting Question: What email service (not free) do you recommend for hosted email servers?
I'm looking for an affordable email hosting service. I want to be able to download email via IMAP or POP3. I want the hosting company to provide virus & spam scanning. I want to be able to setup whitelists/blacklists of my own. I want to be able to have a web client for checking my email when I'm away from my Outlook. We have about 40 employees whose email would run through this service. I'm considering using Google Apps at $50 per year per user. I need the email address to be my domain not gmail.com or yahoo.com. I'm not interested in hosted exchange as they are simply too expensive, the current service I use costs $2/month per user but the quality of their support has recently taken a dive. Oh and I want to be able to call the company who hosts the email when I have a problem - not just online or emailed support.

Resolved Question: Web design question. Is this guy trying something?
I have been speaking to a web designer about him helping me make this site that ive had an idea for, ive told that i want him to sort out the php and leave the front end blank so that i can edit the colours and logos and so on using dreamweaver therfore cutting the cost of his services as I only need him to do the programming and leave me to do the easy part.
He has said this is no problem but he has said he will be hosting the site so if i want to edit something i would be able to do so with a username and password that he provides for me.
Now im very wary of being shafted because i think my idea could be very successful. If i need a username and password to change my site on his system or whatever it is, would that mean he is trying to keep me locked in? like wouldnt it be easier to just give me all the files for the website in a folder much like the web templates you buy online.
Before I sign on the dotted line with him I want to be sure he isnt going to double cross me because all my files will be under his control if I have to sign in to edit my web page.
Thanks in advance for your opinions
Its a PHP website so Im not too versed on how to edit php files, which I why i decided to recruit a web designer to do the hard stuff. otherwise i would create the site myself if it was just html

Resolved Question: Domain Names and Shared Web Hosting?
I'm fairly new with choosing web hosts on the web and as a web designer, I'm having various clients in different hosting services, some better or worse than others but they become difficult for me to handle.
I was thinking about using 1 account on a clustered/grid servers to manage all websites at once, but I'm unsure of how I'll be able to sort out the domain names or if I'll only be able to use one.
If I'm only able to ensue 1 domain name, can you please refer me to a host/service that could help me?
P.S. The hosts I was looking at were myriadnetwork and mediatemple.

Resolved Question: So...I wanna start website..?
An art website for a collection of my Japanese fan-arts, sort of like http://killer.egoism.jp/b/ . So far, I can't find that many free web-hosting sites that allow me to use my own layout an such. I've tried 110mb, but they never send me a confirmation email. I can't really pay for web-hosting, since I'm only 15, so I'm only looking for free services. Can anyone please tell me a reliable free web-hosting service?
