yeah....many sites r still not operational....

need a lot of googling to do...looking for some scripts....most of the sites dont open up.....

but atleast the messenger is up.....

messenger not workin felt like i got stranded on an uninhabited island!!!

ahhhhhh..........

finally..........

msn n yahoo messengers r working....

life is back to normal....since 11am....

what a relief.....

never before noticed problems with yahoo or msn messenger.....im online 24x7 on those...

hello...

right now(since past 1 hour) ive pulled out a lot of my hair...

i am unable to connect to yahoo.com, msn.com, msn messenger, yahoo messenger, microsoft.com...

i am able to browse thru suns website...when i click on the final download button i again get a DNS error....or a network error....

this has been confirmed from various locations...

1) my home....using true 2.5 mbps/512 kbps

2) my office....using true 1mbps/512 kbps

3) my pocket PC.....using DTAC wifi...not sure which ISP they use for their gateway....

is it just me or others also......

pls reply if others r also facing this problem....so i can stop pulling out more hair ;-)

now msn has become an integral part of our business...its not working n ppl here r repeatedly pushing me to solve this issue...

do you think true(or whoever is guilty) is entitled to a public statement regarding this?

normally whatever i have got repaired(didnt try brother) in thailand i never produced any gurantee card or a receipt...

examples include acer notebook, palm treo(support by phone then instant replacement)

anywars learnt frm yr experience..... to keep the cards/receipts safe...

Most big Thai ISPs use proxy servers that can mis-lead you as to where the machine you're trying to trace actually is.

This would probably explain the varied results. The tracert indicated Bangkok on the 3rd from last hop so ... I guess thats the closest I'm gonna get!

I found many IP addresses from user's in the U.S. to be Australian ones, and many IP addresses from user's in Europe to be netherland ones, despite the fact that they are in Scandinavia or Germany.

Many ISPs work global, and thus you get whatever IP they have from whereever

You can use such info as a hint only, not as reliable data.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

from my mail servers log i get users IPs as 203.144.160.245, 203.144.160.244 etc etc

just do a reverse dns n u get names like caching4-true.asianet.co.th n so onn...

meaning as per my logs no matter how many ppl usin true access my websites, it would show as only max 10 unique visitors....

this is sad...

the web masters should be able to get the correct IP of the users browsing their site.....for whatever reasons....

if the ISPs use their proxy that means i visit say buksida's site n write some bad/disturbing comments, can buksida hold true responsible in the court of law? as the comment was technically posted from true's server.

ahh...just wish i could go back in time....not much...maybe 9 or 10 years when domain name registration was free....

i was only a kid then,...otherwise maybe could have minted like u guys...

udon: u got any good domain names up yr sleve now? im thinkin of a webmail service.,.PM me in case u got ne...

To be honest a four colour printer (like this Brother) will only give barely adequate results printing photographs. A lot depends upon how critical you are.

The six colour printers are much better (and correspondingly more expensive) but I don't think anyone does a combo model.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

correct....

but for average users(like me) most they need is document printing....

4 color is fine for documents...news letters....and the very-very occaisonal printing photographs....

if the printer requirements r for professional purposes then one should not even think of MFC....

the MFC manufacturers wouldnt put in the pro stuff.....how much ppl would fit into te category of {(needs professional photograph printing) AND (needs fax) AND (doesnt mind spending expensive ink on stupid fax)} OR (has excessive money)

i got a MFC-410 for home....all in one....210C + lan support...

no problems so far...

the only thing is the print head is attached to the printer n not on the cartrige...so no cheap refills....gotta use only the genuine cartridge.....

its ok as at home not much printing needs....

use a brother laser at office...after abt 2 yrs the rubber got dirty n had frequent paper jamms.....got the printer serviced(cleaned up with some solution) as good as new again....

i always use www.networksolutions.com ... i dont know why...

Thanks for the replies, interesting results I got:

The first three links are software packages that tell me what I already know.

geobytes.com locator gave me Chonburi

hostip.info gave me Chiang Mai

IP2location.com gave me Thailand and the ISP

  still in the dark! 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

for most countries a simple traceroute is the answer....the reverse dns for the routers/users IPs normally contain the city code..... i dont think thai isps follow this...worth a try..

I would disagree with the comments on forums. Yes, it is generally worse performing than other types of websites, simply due to the amount of repeat customers and so on, but many forums do very well out of adsense.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

yeah....example

mrbojangles : visit https://www.google.com/adsense

I'm not sure on this one, you may want to email support and ask them. I doubt you can though as they're two separate departments and you will have two separate accounts, one for Adsense and one for Adwords.

u r right....

However, we are always looking for ways to improve the Google AdSense and AdWords experiences. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration going forward. Thank you for your understanding.

If you have additional questions, please visit AdWords Support at https://adwords.google.co.uk/support, where you will find answers to many frequently asked questions.

step 1 ) try yr usb thingy on another pc

atleast clear out wether yr mp3 player is faulty or problem wid yr pc....

I could make a cup of tea on it it's so hot and i worry it may damage my drive.

its a 3.5 inch one and i'm going to put a fan on it if i can.

I got it cause it was smaller tan the others as it didn't have a fan but if i was getting another one would get a builtin fan for sure.

made in china. 700baht.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

used to use a 3.5" external case few months back....it also got very hot....

40GB seagate baracuda 7200 rpm...

at that time i thought its due to the ammount of porn on it...

however one question i have more...couldnt find the answer in the google faqs...

can i use my add sense earnings to advertise on addwords?

i.e. without waiting for my account to reach $100....etc

the ISP's transparent proxy is at fault...

Hi there. I have been thinking of setting up a site with google adsense. Do you make much cash from it? And how many visitors doy ou currently get? Any info would be appreciated.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

hey...

i added addsense for search on my site....

did a few searches thru it.....clicked on 2 adds on the search results.....

checked the google account nothing.....

was just about to leave now (2 hrs later) checked my account n i now have $1.40 in my account....

IMHO $1.40 for 7 queries n 2 clicks is not bad....

im thinkin of delivering some free services.....

just toying arround with these services to see how they work...

how much is the average you guys make per impression?

does the number of impression increase each time the same visitor goes to another page with add sense?

what about if the visitor refreshes the page....

could be opera is already logged on or something...

for how long have you been having this problem?

what do u get when u try loggin into yahoo from opera?

my suggestion is u wait for the session to expire(maybe 30 to 60 mins)....

tx crushdeth n buksida...

i wasnt aware abt the check thingy....

guess got more diggin to do...

btw how much time does it take for google to approve a website?

with Clicksor i have applied today early morning...still waiting for my site to be approved...

nice....

and minimum payout $20...better...

tx a lot.

i dun think they allow advertising by adding footer to html mails...

hi.

i noticed google web adds only remit the money to US bank accounts...

they wont pay to pay pal?

i am planin to put google web adds to my webmail.

anyone know of another such service? where i can add the add to the footer of all outgoing emails from the free users... and they can pay to paypal also...

woops...how did i miss that simple thing...

"install support for east asian languages" ....how dumb of me.....pls ignore this post...

devil_dog <-- kicks himself for his stupidity....

found one in fortune tower rachadapisek

maybe 3rd or 4th floor....

I prefer Fortune IT near the corner of Rama 9 and Ratchapesedic Rds.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Me too, ever since the subway opened up right next to it. Not as chaotic as Pantip and selection is excellent covering two large floors.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

totally agree...

on my last trip found a shop with a nice collection on computer books (in english - not kidding)
