HATI-HATI! Penipuan Pulsa di Facebook oleh Hidayat Nur Wahid Palsu!

2011-11-09T18:12:00.003+07:00

Pencatutan nama tokoh-tokoh besar tampaknya masih menjadi penyakit yang menyedihkan dalam mental oknum-oknum bangsa ini yang ingin menarik sejumlah keuntungan dari jalan yang tidak halal.

Contohnya pencatutan salah satu nama tokoh politik Indonesia, Hidayat Nur Wahid. Hal ini saya ketahui ketika tadi saya tanpa sengaja membaca sebuah artikel berjudul "Awas Penipuan Pulsa atas nama FB Hidayat Nur Wahid" di situs Islamedia. Namun lantaran pada jam sebelumnya secara kebetulan saya juga "disapa" oleh account yang diindikasikan mencatut nama anggota DPR dari Fraksi Partai Keadilan Sejahtera tersebut, menjadi yakinlah saya bahwa apa yang diberitakan di situs Islamedia itu memang patut untuk diwaspadai.

Online Fax Services

2011-08-13T06:52:00.001+07:00

Are you running a business or have a small office in your home? Then one of your main concerns will costs and overheads which can directly affect your profits or household budget. One of the best ways you can save money is by using online faxing to combine as many office tasks as possible into one multi-functional unit.

The method of online faxing is very similar to sending an email and the main benefit is that you will not need any additional equipment in order to send and receive faxes as with conventional faxing.

But you need to take attention from monthly fees that online fax providers charge. There are other charges, like setup fees, that you should be aware of before you decide which provider to choose. But once you choose the right online faxing service provider there are no hidden costs, and once you have set up your account you will pay a fixed monthly amount to use the service.

So it's very important to a look the comparison prices for online fax services providers charge first before choosing the best as your need. Good luck!

How to Block Internet Explorer 6 from Your Website?

2011-06-02T23:05:00.001+07:00

Internet Explorer 6 (IE 6) is a last-generation browser. This means that IE 6 can't provide the same web experience that modern browsers can. For many web developers, continued support of IE 6 means that they can't optimize their interfaces or provide an enhanced customer experience in their apps. Supporting IE 6 means slower progress, less progress, and, in some places, no progress. They want to make sure the experience is the best it can be for the vast majority of their customers, and continuing to support IE 6 holds they back.

As a web developer or web designer, you might want to block visitor from opening your website using IE6. If so, you can try to put a single line javascript provided by No Internet Explorer 6! website.

Once you put that code, everytime your visitor trying to open your website using IE6 they will displayed notification that telling them if their browser was too old and they need to update if they want to see your web content. Otherwise, they can choose to download another modern browser to get new experience.

For some reasons, internet administrator on your school or office may blocked access to several sites such as Facebook, Youtube, Twitter or else. And this is why peoples asked to me with one similar question: "How to Open Blocked Website?"

My answer is quick and simple: "Try to use Free Web Proxy!"

But, actually how do this proxy sites work?

Well, quoted from Free Web Proxy Server | Apa Dong (dot) Org's site, proxy sites enable you to bypass your own Internet provider and browse through the proxy web site. Everyone who has an internet connection has an IP address, which in simple terms is your online 'fingerprint'. If you use free proxy service, your fingerprint will be hidden and changed to their anonymous one, essentially hiding your real identity, and in most cases you will virtually reside in another country.

Pretty simple.
