DamnX.us and 1websiteshostingpromotions.com

I'm fed off by the poor services that this hosting company has been giving. For those who want to acquire their services, here is my review:

Advantage(s):

  1. Cheap
  2. Large Space
  3. High Bandwidth (supposedly)
Disadvantages:
  1. SLOW
  2. Too many downtimes
  3. Upgrade to a reseller is not automated, as a result, they will keep on receiving subscription payments made by the customer for the previous package before the upgrade. They don't even bother to inform the customer.
  4. Referring to 3, they will say it's your fault that you did not unsubscribe from your paypal account.
  5. They double charge!

We use 3 web hosting companies and DAMNX.us is the worst, our site has been down 5 whole days and their support is useless, telling us problem is sorted, but on checking the site it is still down.

Our recommendation - DO NOT USE THEM.

The also registered FAKE whois information - location is said to be in the USA, but contact number that works is a mobile cell number in India!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

We experienced a similar issue with our website being down for over a week but being told constantly that their server was up when it wasn't.

When we asked for update they did not provide any answer, so we had to dispute the pamyent for the domain on our credit card as a last resort.

damnx.us, idrns.com and 1websiteshostingpromotions.com are nothing but scammers, frauds and theives. Toniya is nothing but a liar.

Adding a Footer to the DataGridView component

I have been searching for sites and forums that would give me a any hint on having a footer on the .net DataGridView control. It was frustrating. I found some, but not what I was looking for. I use windows forms. It would have been easier if I was into web. I decided to create one for myself. It's not complete, but it works with me. It needs improvement and I hope that some programmers who might pass through this blog will help me with it :D. Limitations: Cannot set Footer values during design time. Can sometimes hide a row when scrolled to the last item in the grid. What I did was just create a user control that inherits the DataGridView control and add a StatusStrip to act as the footer. public partial class MyDataGridView : DataGridView { public StatusStrip Footer { get { return (StatusStrip)this.Controls["Footer"]; } } private bool _footerVisible; [Browsable(false)] /// /// Sets or Gets the va...

How to cheat blog polls

Ok, I really need to post this. Many bloggers put polls on their blog sites and rely heavily on the results that they give and some even draw conclusions based on those data. The problem is that they don't check where the data those polls are generating are stored. Many polls don't even record the voter's information. Well to those of you who want to cheat polls (I mean blog polls. Some polls are really reliable), here are some points: 1. These polls don't store your IP address nor your MAC address, how then do you think are they checking for flying voters? COOKIES! 2. Now you already have an idea. Now try to vote to a blogger's poll then clear your cookies and refresh the page. You'll be able to vote again. 3. If #2 doesn't work, there's a big chance that your voting data is stored on internet temporary files. Now you know what to do. Delete those files. 4. If #3 doesn't work, then your data might have been stored elsewhere. You might want to use a ...

Using Crystal Reports 10 with C#.net and Firebird

C# express doesn't include a report designer or viewer. Reports however, is very much needed when creating a business software. Since C# express doesn't include a report designer, we need to find other means. One is to use a free report such as MyNeoReport. This however may not work under many circumstances. The other alternative would be to use a proven report engine and designer-Crystal Report. Crystal Report has been used by many developers (in our city). However, using a free programming language and IDE, and a free database is very limiting. Not much information can be gathered on the net either (with regards to reporting as of this writing). Here's a way to use Crystal Reports using Firebird database and C# Express as software development IDE: Pre-requisites: C# Express 2005 EMS SQL Manager 2005 for InterBase & Firebird Lite Crystal Reports 10 Create the following database: Name: TestDB1 Tables: TESTTABLE1 Columns:  ID - PK, INTEGER,AUTOINCREMENT DES...
