    Need Advice (Strange Site Ranking Results)

    I see. I guess I just always thought the new site would take precedence at some point in time. I suppose Google keeps it in the index so long as it is serving at a landing page. Just seems crazy for a page with such little text to be so highly ranked for broad phrases. Thanks for the input!

    Need Advice (Strange Site Ranking Results)

    It has been at the top for the designated keywords for quite sometime. I am just curious if anyone knows of a technique they may be using to make their rankings possible. I have reviewed a TON of SEO techniques, and each they are using as well, and none of them should help with gain rankings...

    Need Advice (Strange Site Ranking Results)

    I have been performing Search Engine Optimization and paid ad tasks for years, and have had a lot of success with the results of my optimization for specific keywords. In optimizing a site of mine for "service dispatch" I have come across a site that seems to break all of the rules I've ever...

    Code Signing Certificates

    I am creating my first ClickOnce application in VS 2008. ClickOnce requires that you sign your application with a certificate, and VS creates a temporary certificate to use. However, I am wondering if it's possible to create a custom code signing certificate for deployment. I don't...

    New Instance of MSSQL 2005 Express - instance number?

    The most reliable way of getting the number of an Instance is to look it up in the registry by name. Just look at this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance Names\SQL The values should be straight-forward for you to find the instance numbers you need.

    Check if SSMS is Installed

    Jay, I appreciate the post, but I don't believe that article has anything to do with Management Studio. To be more specific: I am writing an application that will launch an automated installation of SQL Server 2005 Express with Advanced Services. I would like to modify the arguments I pass to...

    Check if SSMS is Installed

    Does anyone know of a reliable way to programatically confirm whether or not the Management Studio is installed. I've been looking at different registry entries, but have not been able to pinpoint a single entry that is reliable to check for from machine to machine. I can't really check for a...

    Installation Woes

    I have multiple applications that I handle the installations for using Macrovision's InstallShield. I have no problem configuring the files, redistributables, paths, etc. I am wondering if anyone can provide some details on what can be done to prevent the "Windows is preparing to install" issue...

    Latin Characters All of a Sudden

    Well, after a bit of research and testing I've found that the problem is indeed an issue with ASP's handling of Unicode characters. I am still not sure EXACTLY what caused this to change on my site, but after reviewing numerous site backups from the past year I believe this to be a problem with...

    Latin Characters All of a Sudden

    gmmastros, I did review post, and the information given is very useful for troubleshooting my issue further. However, I've had bigger fish to fry in the past few days, so I have not had the chance to test and confirm anything. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions, it is very useful!

    Latin Characters All of a Sudden

    As mentioned in my original post the fields are of data type NTEXT. The most bizarre thing about this is that these fields have not changed, been updated, or otherwise altered. It's almost like some sort of update ran against my entire DB. Am I not handling the input of these special...

    Blocking Specific IPs on Outside

    I haven't actually found a reasonable way of logging traffic yet. So far the logs I'm viewing are the PDM logs only....any suggestions on setting those logs up would be helpful. I just viewed my server's logs and it looks like that request from that IP have stopped, but it seems as if it's...

    Blocking Specific IPs on Outside

    I have been getting a large number of FTP requests from various IPs. I have setup an entry in my Access List to Deny all traffic originating from a specific IP on the outside, however, for some reason the traffice from this IP is still being allowed, and I can still see the FTP requests getting...

    Latin Characters All of a Sudden

    I have a site that allows users to input text to a SQL DB that will be diplayed on various pages throughout the site. All of sudden, and for seemingly no reason, some special characters, such as hyphens (-), single quotes ('), and double-quotes ("), among others, have been replaced by latin...

    Email Roundtable Setup

    We are currently being hosted with an iMail control panel on the email side. We have a virtual dedicated plan, and I've never seen an option for any specialized mail setup. I suppose I'll need to contact them to get some more info/options. I appreciate the input so far, as I was unaware of...

    Email Roundtable Setup

    I have been asked to setup an email roundtable service for the company I work with. They want the service to work like this: 1. Someone sends an email with a question to some address (say 'rt@dom.com'). 2. The email is retrieved by either an email client or server. 3. The email is routed to all...

    SQL 2005 Backward Compatibility Repair

    I have a VB app that was originally written for use with SQL 2000 and DMO. Because 2005 only supports SMO natively I have to install SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility Components along side the client application to allow DMO to be used on the 2005 DB. This works fine until an update is run...
