Hello Carey:

Im running win2k pro, my problem is it has a debugger that runs when a program malfunctions or you click on a website stored on my desktop, or try to open a folder at times. [ It dont run often but enough to bug the h--- out of me ]…….

Well i could accept the debugger if it worked right, but it takes it forever to debug or it never stops debugging. Is a debugger necessary , or can i de-activate it? I’ve looked every where for it but cant find it,,, I’ve even done a registry search but never found it yet. Is there a way i can delete the registry key to get this debugging prog to stop bugging me? Or is there even a reg key for it?

Any help or info will be greatly appreciated..

Thank You.

Am I really telling you two different messages here? Not really – you need to think of offering more AND fewer options on your site. Let me explain:

When it comes to advertising, too many webmasters are content with paying thousands of dollars to place their ads with only the most recognizable websites on the Internet. This is certainly understandable, as the most recognizable websites in your industry can add credibility and are certain to produce some results.

A truly successful marketing campaign will effectively harness the many high-impact, low-cost opportunities available.

Paid-placement search engine listings, like those at Goto.com, are great for effective, targeted and low-cost traffic for your website. That’s why so many people are using them, driving up prices of even obscure terms in bidding. Google’s Self-Service Advertising System, called “Google AdWords,” and the “Jeeves Text Sponsorship Network” are two similar services you should add to your list of places to advertise.

‘Multiple streams of income’ is often trumpeted about as one of the biggest advantages of doing business online. There’s no doubt about it; even a bunch of ‘little’ cheques can add up to a solid income every month.

If you sell more than a handful of products on your website, you’ll need to add what’s known as a shopping cart. This is a function that allows your customers to pick out the items they want and send them to a “cart,” which holds onto them until they’re ready to check out. The program then totals the order and adds any applicable taxes and shipping charges.
