Thanks for looking into this

Microsoft just announced a new vulnerability for their SQL Servers that are exposed to the web (like JodoHost's servers). Below are the affected SQL Servers. Are the SQL Servers here update to date enough (i.e. SP3 for SQL Server 2005)? Story

So I finally updated my portfolio website. Now I know there are some silly spelling mistakes and some re-wording that needs to happen (most were minor and I didn't have a chance to update them so I just wanted to get it out there) but I'd like to get some feedback on it. One of the items that...

Good to know, thanks

The .Net framework can determine what calls it makes and what trust level is required for such calls. Once calls are made outside of the framework it's not possible to allow only certain calls. This is why most companies (like JodoHost) do not allow calling unmanaged code from .Net. While the...

Correct but out of the box isn't IIS setup for 32-bit only? That was my impression at least.

I think that can be combined into one call to the SQL Server. Any way you could post the query without the string concatenation? It'll be easier to read :)

Any way we could see the query? Might be able to do some optimization.

Not sure what the advantage would be. If your VPS doesn't use 4GB+ of ram then there isn't any point. Since it's emulated and the fact that ASP.Net runs in 32-bit mode I can't there being any performance increases.

I'm trying to figure out how I can send mail via PHP using my SMTP server. I have a mail.MyDomain.com setup (it was by default) but attempting to use that as an SMTP server does not work. Are there any special settings that need to be changed for this?

Beyond refills, Amazon may be the cheapest. They're cheap with everything!

I'm not sure I follow. Are you planning (or hoping) to send videos via e-mail as marketing? If so, I don't think that will be very effective considering you can't embed a video into an e-mail (unless you're using an Html e-mail but this won't work in Outlook or many other e-mail clients). So...

Why would you have to guess? They're not documented or at least scripted out? I can understand wanting a visual representation though. If you have Visual Studio you can setup a database connection and view everything correctly. The free versions of Visual Studio (Express) might work as well.

Just use management studio then...

Examples of what? What have you tried and what do you need to accomplish? Google has thousands of examples indexed. I like to help but I'm also not going to do your work for you. Show us what you've done so far and ask questions.
