Hi, Raymond and all members!

I am writing another report about the top 1000 web sites in the internet.
To get some ideas how the web sites are ranked, I asked for help from my friend, David. I started with the filefront .com.
Then a few minutes later, he posted the following detail of the web site to me:

He didn't tell how he found so much info about the web site.
Do you know how he did it?

[Raymond]

Your friend simply did a "whois" on the domain.

For starters, you can "whois" on any domain too. Just go to http://www.whois.net OR http://www.ajaxdns.com

Type in the domain, for example, raymond.cc and then click on Whois Search if you're using AjaxDNS

oh, my...
Many thanks for the help, Raymond.


BTW, would you mind telling me your job, Raymond?
Are you a Professor in a tertiary educational institution, Raymond?
One of my school Professor is named Raymond also.
I am starting to think if you are Professor Raymond.

[Raymond]

Lol, I'm no professor.

I'm just very into computers. My first computer was 386 which I don't know how to use it except for playing games. Then came Pentium 100MHz with my 14.4kbps modem. That's when I started learning a lot. When I finished school, I took MCSE, MCSA, MCSE+Security, CCNA, SCSA, A+, Network+, Security+. Well, a lot of my certs are expired and I didn't renew them. All those certs doesn't make me a professor :P

Oh, my godness!
did you ever get hired as a teacher, Raymond?
You have much knowledge and experience on computers.

i buy a dvd for vista but it there is a product key in the cd...... How can i activate by ultimate vista? where can i find the activation code

[srikarr12]

did u buy a dvd to burn vista into or cant u find the product key after u hav brought vista!!!!!!!!!

I dont know what ur trying to tell us :P

[Raymond]

buntales_27, if you have a genuine Vista, you can activate it by doing this.

You can activate either online or by phone. To activate online you need an Internet connection. Activating by phone requires interacting with an automated phone system.

To activate Windows on this computer, do the following:

Open Windows Activation by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Computer, clicking Properties, and then clicking Click here to activate Windows now.* Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

You can then select the method you want to use to activate.

P/S: By the way, why don't you post a new topic? Your reply has got nothing to do with this topic :P

[kwfine]

Hi!

Could you tell me why srikarr12 knows which OS and ISP I am using, Raymond?
It's interesting that I see some of my infos in his penguin logo.
