Installing Visual Basic .NET

2010-04-14T22:23:00.000-07:00

Installing Visual Basic .NET

You may own Visual Basic .NET:

As part of Visual Studio .NET, a suite of tools and languages that also includes C# (pronounced C-sharp) and Visual C++ .NET. Visual Studio comes in three flavors: Professional, Enterprise Developer, and Enterprise Architect. Each of these versions comes with progressively more tools for building and managing the development of larger enterprise wide applications.

As the Standard Edition, which includes a cut down set of the tools and languages available with Visual Studio .NET.

Both enable you to create your own applications for the Windows platform. The installation procedure is straightforward. In fact, the Visual Basic .NET Install is smart enough to figure out exactly what your computer requires to make it work.

The descriptions that follow are based on installing Visual Studio .NET Professional. However, all of Visual Studio .NET's languages use the same screens and windows (and hence look very similar), so you would not be seeing much that you would not see anyway.

Try It Out: Installing Visual Basic .NET:-

1] The Visual Basic .NET CD has an auto-run feature, but if the Setup screen does not appear after inserting the CD, you have to run setup.exe from the root directory of the CD. To do this, go to your Windows Start menu (usually found right at the bottom of your screen) and select Run. Then type d:\setup.exe into the Open box, where d is the drive letter of your CD drive. After the setup program initializes you will see the screen as shown in Figure 1-1.

Figure 1-1

2] This dialog box shows the order in which the installation takes place. To function properly, Visual Basic .NET requires that several components and updates be installed on your machine. Step 1 is the Windows component update, so click on the Windows Component Update link; you will then be prompted to insert the Component Update CD that came with your Visual Studio .NET disks.

Note:- Depending on how your operating system is configured you may receive the following message like the one shown in Figure 1-2 before you install the pre-requisites.

Figure 1-2

Note:-

If you want to build Web applications locally you must install Internet Information Services (IIS) and Front Page Server Extensions. Clicking Setup Instructions takes you to a Web page with explicit instructions on how to install these components. You will have to restart the Visual Studio .NET / Visual Basic .NET installation after installing IIS. If you skip this step you will have to use a remote Web server to host your application.

3] The installation program then examines your system to see exactly which components have to be installed. Depending on the current state of your machine, this list could include any of the following items:

Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6.0a
Windows Installer 2.0
Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client
Setup Runtime Files
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 with Service Pack 1
Microsoft Data Access Components 2.7 with Service Pack 1
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft Visual J# .Net Redistributable Package 1.1

Note

:-If you don't know what some of those things are, don't worry about it. They are just Windows components that Visual Studio .NET or Visual Basic .NET requires.

4] After agreeing to the End User License agreement for the Prerequisite components, click Continue and the list of needed prerequisite components will be displayed.

Note:-

Depending on what components you have already installed on your machine, your list of components that require updating may be different. For reference, these are the options on a completely patched version of Windows XP Professional that includes Internet Information Services.

5] Click Install Now! to begin the installation of the Prerequisites. After the Prerequisite install has finished, you will be returned to the initial Setup screen and step 2 will be enabled. You will now be able to install Visual Studio .NET, so click on Visual Studio .NET.

6] As with most installations you will be presented with an option list of components to install (see Figure 1-3 ). You can choose to install only the features that you need. For example, if your drive space is limited and you have no immediate need for Visual C++ .NET, you can exclude it from the installation. You will also be given the chance to select the location of items (although the defaults should suffice unless your particular machine has special requirements). Any option that is not chosen at the initial setup can always be added later as your needs or interests change.

Figure 1-3

There are three sections of information given for each feature:

The Feature properties section outlines where the required files will be installed and how much space will be needed to do this.
The Feature description box gives you an outline of each feature and its function.
Finally, the Space Allocation section illustrates how the space on your hard drive will be affected by the installation as a whole.

Note

:- When you are running Visual Basic .NET, a lot of information is swapped from the disk to memory and back again. Therefore, it is important to have some free space on your disk. There is no exact rule for determining how much free space you will need, but if you use your machine for development as well as other tasks, anything less than 100MB free space should be considered a full disk.

7] Once you have chosen all of the features you want, click Install Now! Installation will begin and you can sit back and relax for a bit. The setup time varies depending on how many features you chose to install. As a reference, the installation process took over an hour on a 650 MHz laptop computer with 256MB RAM, a 12GB hard drive, and running Windows XP Professional.When installation is completed, you will see a dialog informing you that the installation has completed.

Here you will see any problems that Setup encountered along the way. You are also given the chance to look at the installation log. This log provides a list of all actions taken during the installation process. Unless your installation reported errors, the installation log can safely be ignored. The Visual Studio .NET setup is nearly complete. Click Done to move on to installing the documentation.

8] Visual Studio .NET no longer includes the MSDN documentation as part of the installation. Instead it uses the separate MSDN Library installation routine. The big advantage in this is that one can always install the most current documentation regardless of what came out of your Visual Basic .NET box.

9] The MSDN Library installation is simple and straightforward and this section covers the highlights. After inserting disk one of the MSDN Library (assuming you are installing from CD) you will see the initial welcome screen.

10] This wizard interface guides you through the installation process. After gathering your License and User Information you will see the screen shown in Figure 1-4.

Figure 1-4


	Note	:-Make sure that the Integrate MSDN with Visual Studio .Net 2003 check box is checked so that Visual Studio .NET /Visual Basic .NET can find the MSDN documentation.

11] After clicking Next, you will be allowed to select the amount of the documentation you want to install. For example, if you did not install C++ there is probably little reason to install that documentation.

Note

:-If you have the spare hard drive space, it is a very good idea to install the full documentation. MSDN does not always include specific examples or documentation for Visual Basic .NET; therefore you may find what you are looking for under SQL Server documentation, or even C#.

12] After the MSDN documentation has been installed you are returned to the initial setup screen again and the Service Releases option is now available.

Note

:-It is a good idea to select Service Releases to check for updates. Microsoft has done a good job of making software updates available through the Internet. These updates can include anything from additional documentation to bug fixes. You will be given the choice to install any updates via a Service Pack CD or the Internet. Obviously, the Internet option requires an active connection. Since updates can be quite large, a fast connection is highly recommended.

Once you have performed the update process, Visual Basic .NET is ready to use. Now the real fun can begin! So get comfortable, relax, and let us enter the world of Visual Basic .NET.

DOMAIN NAME

2009-07-10T01:34:00.001-07:00

In computer networking, a domain name is a name given to a collection of network devices that belong to a domain which is managed according to some common property of the members or within a common administrative boundary. In particular, the term is used to describe the regions of administrative authority within the Domain name system used for the Internet (cf. DNS zone).

Domain names are used in a variety of contexts for identification, reference, and access to Internet resources. They can appear as components of Web sites' Uniform Resource Locators (URL, 'Web-address'), e.g. www.wikipedia.org, electronic mail (e-mail) addresses after the customary '@' separator from the user's name, or as any other part of a syntax that describes an access method to a device or service in an IP network.

Domain names are created out of a naming space and methodology that was first defined by Paul Mockapetris in IETF publication RFC 882 and RFC 883 (1983) and used in the first expansion of the ARPANET, a predecessor of today's Internet. The model prescribed a tree-like structure of named nodes starting from an unnamed root node (cf. DNS root zone) that was only designated by a full stop (period, dot, "."). The complete domain name of each node is the string of names of nodes leading to the root node, each separated by a dot. The sequence is written from left to right with increasing order of scope, e.g., node-d.node-c.node-b.node-a. When the full name path of a node is specified, the domain name is said to be fully-qualified (cf. Fully qualified domain name). This condition is often, particularly in the technical aspects of DNS), indicated explicitly by appending a dot at the end of the name (to indicate the root domain).

The DNS methodology confers a unique name to every resource or service participating in the domain name system. This name is referred to as the domain name of a device or Internet host. However, not all nodes in the tree system denote a specific device, rather they are parent labels of an entire collection of subordinate nodes. Such nodes are the domains of the Internet. They represent the spaces of autonomy that are delegated by a group of service providers, called domain name registrars.

These registrars are authorized and accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the organization charged with overseeing the name and number systems of the Internet. In addition to IANA, each top-level domain (TLD) is maintained and serviced technically by a sponsoring organization, the TLD Registry. The registry is responsible for maintaining the database of names registered within the TLDs they administer. The registry receives registration information from each domain name registrar authorized to assign names in the corresponding TLD and publishes the information using a special service, the whois protocol.

In this context a domain name is sometimes referred to as a 'product' sold by domain name registrars. However, the rules of assignment specify that no legal ownership is conferred with such transactions, only the right of exclusive use and the authority to the name space. Once assigned, a domain name becomes part of the pool of registered domain names and is no longer available for use by anyone else. Colloquially, marketers incorrectly refer to domain names as "web addresses", however, a web address is actually a fully specified World-Wide Web resource locator, such as http://www.example.com, actually pointing to a web site.

New domain names are usually registered through the registrar for annual terms with a minimum of one year. The maximum length of prepaid registration is often 10 years, but varies depending on the policies of the sponsoring registry of the top-level domain under which registration is sought. Registration periods may be extended, usually at any time, until the end of a grace period after the registration expiration date.

Domain names may be transferred between parties or advertised for 'sale'. This is often called the "domain name aftermarket" (see below). After a domain name registration and the grace period expire, the domain name is either returned to the pool of available names, or receives special treatment by the registrars and could possibly end up in the 'aftermarket'.[citation needed]

How to find the IP address of the sender in Gmail, Yahoo! mail or Hotmail

2009-07-03T01:31:00.000-07:00

When you receive an email, you receive more than just the message. The email comes with headers that carry important information that can tell where the email was sent from and possibly who sent it. For that, you would need to find the IP address of the sender. The tutorial below can help you find the IP address of the sender. Note that this will not work if the sender uses anonymous proxy servers.

First of all, the IP address is generally found in the headers enclosed beween square brackets, for instance, [129.130.1.1]

Finding IP address in Gmail
Log into your Gmail account with your username and password.
Open the mail.
To display the email headers,
Click on the inverted triangle beside Reply. Select Show Orginal.
You may copy the headers and use my IP address detection script to ease the process. Or if you want to manually find the IP address, proceed to 5.
Look for Received: from followed by the IP address between square brackets [ ].
Received: from [69.138.30.1] by web31804.mail.mud.yahoo.com
If you find more than one Received: from patterns, select the last one.
Track the IP address of the sender
Finding IP address in Yahoo! Mail
Log into your Yahoo! mail with your username and password.
Click on Inbox or whichever folder you have stored your mail.
Open the mail.
If you do not see the headers above the mail message, your headers are not displayed. To display the headers,
Click on Options on the top-right corner
In the Mail Options page, click on General Preferences
Scroll down to Messages where you have the Headers option
Make sure that Show all headers on incoming messages is selected
Click on the Save button
Go back to the mails and open that mail
You should see similar headers like this:

You may copy the headers and use my IP address detection script to ease the process. Or if you want to manually find the IP address, proceed to 7.
Look for Received: from followed by the IP address between square brackets [ ]. Here, it is 202.65.138.109.
That is be the IP address of the sender.
If there are many instances of Received: from with the IP address, select the IP address in the last pattern. If there are no instances of Received: from with the IP address, select the first IP address in X-Originating-IP.
Track the IP address of the sender
Finding IP address in Hotmail
Log into your Hotmail account with your username and password.
Click on the Mail tab on the top.
Open the mail.
If you do not see the headers above the mail message, your headers are not displayed. To display the headers,
Click on Options on the top-right corner
In the Mail Options page, click on Mail Display Settings
In Message Headers, make sure Advanced option is checked
Click on Ok button
Go back to the mails and open that mail
You should see the email headers now.
You may copy the headers and use my IP address detection script to ease the process. Or if you want to manually find the IP address, proceed to 7.
If you find a header with X-Originating-IP: followed by an IP address, that is the sender's IP address
In this case the IP address of the sender is [68.34.60.59]. Jump to step 9.
If you find a header with Received: from followed by a Gmail proxy like this

Look for Received: from followed by IP address within square brackets[].
In this case, the IP address of the sender is [69.140.7.58]. Jump to step 9.
Or else if you have headers like this

Look for Received: from followed by IP address within square brackets[].
In this case, the IP address of the sender is [61.83.145.129] (Spam mail). Jump to step 9.
* If you have multiple Received: from headers, eliminate the ones that have proxy.anyknownserver.com.
Track the IP address of the sender
IP Address Detection Script
I wrote a Perl script to automate this task for you. All you have to do is select your email service and copy your email headers in the box below.

You may do one of the following:

You can copy all the headers from your email and paste them here.
In this case, the unnecessary headers (like Subject:) will be removed automatically.

You can remove all headers except those beginning with
X-Originating-IP:

How to modify *.exe files

2009-07-03T01:25:00.000-07:00

You can acomplish this in 5 easy steps:
1) First off all, you need Resource Hacker. It's a resource editor very easy to use.You can download it from http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker
2) Unzip the archive, and run ResHacker.exe.
3) You will see that the interface is simple and clean. Go to the menu File\Open orpress Ctrl+O to open a file. Browse your way to the file you would like to edit.You can edit *.exe, *.dll, *.ocx, *.scr and *.cpl files, but this tutorial is meantto teach you how to edit *.exe files, so open one.
4) In the left side of the screen a list of sections will appear.The most common sections are:-Icon;-String table;-RCData;-Dialog;-Cursor group;-Bitmap;-WAV.
5) In the RCData, Dialog, Menu and String table sections you can do a lot of changes. You can modify or translate the text change links, change buttons, etc.=> To change a window title, search for something like: CAPTION "edit this".=>After all operations press the "Compile Script" button, and when you're done editing saveyour work @ File\Save(Save as).=> When you save a file, the original file will be backed up by default and renamed to Name_original and the savedfile will have the normal name of the changed program.=>Sometimes you may get a message like: "This program has a non-standard resource layout... it has probably been compressed with an .EXE compressor." That means that Resource Hacker can't modify it because of it's structure.

Ubuntu

Ubuntu (pronounced /uːˈbuːntuː/^[3] oo-BOON-too),^[4] is a computer operating system based on Debian GNU/Linux. It is distributed as free software. Ubuntu's goals include providing an up-to-date, stable operating system for the average user, with a strong focus on usability and ease-of-installation. Ubuntu has been selected by readers of desktoplinux.com as the most popular Linux distribution for the desktop, claiming approximately 30% of their desktop installations in both 2006 and 2007.^[5]^[6]

Ubuntu is composed of multiple software packages distributed under either a free software or an open source license. The main license used is the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL) which explicitly declares that users are free to run, copy, distribute, study, change, develop and improve the software. Ubuntu is sponsored by the UK based company Canonical Ltd., owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth. Instead of selling Ubuntu for profit, Canonical creates revenue by selling technical support and from creating several services tied to Ubuntu including Ubuntu One, Landscape and Launchpad. Canonical is yet to turn profitable, however. By keeping Ubuntu distribution itself free software and open source, Canonical is able to take advantage of the talents of outside developers in Ubuntu's constituent components without developing the entire operating system itself (which is based primarily on current Linux kernels).

Canonical endorses and provides support for four additional Ubuntu-like operating systems: Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu (a subproject and add-on for Ubuntu, designed for school environments and home users),^[7] and Ubuntu JeOS (pronounced "Juice", a stripped-down version of Ubuntu optimized for virtual appliances).^[8]

Canonical releases new versions of Ubuntu every six months and supports Ubuntu for eighteen months by providing security fixes, patches to critical bugs and minor updates to programs. LTS (Long Term Support) versions, which are released every two years,^[9] are supported for three years on the desktop and five years for servers.^[10] The current version of Ubuntu, 9.04, was released on April 23, 2009, and the upcoming version, Karmic Koala, is planned to be released on October 29, 2009.

Linux

Linux is an operating system that was initially created as a hobby by a young student, Linus Torvalds, at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linus had an interest in Minix, a small UNIX system, and decided to develop a system that exceeded the Minix standards. He began his work in 1991 when he released version 0.02 and worked steadily until 1994 when version 1.0 of the Linux Kernel was released. The kernel, at the heart of all Linux systems, is developed and released under the GNU General Public License and its source code is freely available to everyone. It is this kernel that forms the base around which a Linux operating system is developed. There are now literally hundreds of companies and organizations and an equal number of individuals that have released their own versions of operating systems based on the Linux kernel. More information on the kernel can be found at our sister site, LinuxHQ and at the official Linux Kernel Archives. The current full-featured version is 2.6 (released December 2003) and development continues.

Apart from the fact that it's freely distributed, Linux's functionality, adaptability and robustness, has made it the main alternative for proprietary Unix and Microsoft operating systems. IBM, Hewlett-Packard and other giants of the computing world have embraced Linux and support its ongoing development. Well into its second decade of existence, Linux has been adopted worldwide primarily as a server platform

. Its use as a home and office desktop operating system is also on the rise. The operating system can also be incorporated directly into microchips in a process called "embedding" and is increasingly being used this way in appliances and devices.

Throughout most of the 1990's, tech pundits, largely unaware of Linux's potential, dismissed it as a computer hobbyist project, unsuitable for the general public's computing needs. Through the efforts of developers of desktop management systems such as KDE and GNOME, office suite project OpenOffice.org and the Mozilla web browser project, to name only a few, there are now a wide range of applications that run on Linux and it can be used by anyone regardless of his/her knowledge of computers. Those curious to see the capabilities of Linux can download a live CD version called Knoppix . It comes with everything you might need to carry out day-to-day tasks on the computer and it needs no installation. It will run from a CD in a computer capable of booting from the CD drive. Those choosing to continue using Linux can find a variety of versions or "distributions" of Linux that are easy to install, configure and use. Information on these products is available in our distribution section and can be found by selecting the mainstream/general public category.

Additional Information

If you're interested in learning about Linux, need help with some aspect of its use or are enthusiastic about it and want to help foster its adoption, you may want to get in touch with a Linux User Group in your area. There are groups in practically every country, region and city in the world, so there is likely to be one near you.

Each day, Linux use is increasing in every sector of our society. We have information about Linux deployments in government, industry and the arts.

Linux has an official mascot, Tux, the Linux penguin, which was selected by Linus Torvalds to represent the image he associates with the operating system. Tux was created by Larry Ewing and Larry has generously given it to the community to be freely used to promote Linux. More information on use of the image can be found on his webpage. More links to variations on the image and alternative logos can be found on logo page

Many people are not sure of the pronunciation of the word Linux. Although many variations of the word exist, often due to native language factors, it is normally pronounced with a short " i " and with the first syllable stressed, as in LIH-nucks. You can hear how Linux creator Linus Torvalds pronounces the word in Swedish and in English .

More information on Linus Torvalds, can be found on short biography page.
