How to configure POP Access on your Forex account hosted under Google.

How do I configure POP Access?

From The Google Help Center

Configuring POP access for your email account is very similar to configuring POP access in Gmail. Here's what you need to know:

Any time you're asked for your username during the configuration process, you'll need to enter your full email address (username@your_domain.com).
The incoming server is still pop.gmail.com or pop.googlemail.com, and outgoing server is smtp.gmail.com or smtp.googlemail.com.
You can learn more about configuring POP Access in the Gmail Help Center.

The error "The process could not enumerate changes at the Subscriber", can mean a lot of things. But if you look on the details of this error on your enterprise manager you will notice that it says something like this:

General netowork error. Check your network documentation.

Yes, there is probably a network connection problem on the other end or the subscriber server is offline.

How to configure my pc to have a static ip address?

First what is a static ip address?

• In simple terms it is a fixed address assigned to a device such as a Personal Computer/Laptop, PDA, network printers and more.
• This is in contrast to a dynamic IP address which may change at any time.

Do you need a router?

The question do I need a router always comes into question. The answer is yes and no. If you have only one computer at home, you don't need a router, but if you have at least two computer that needs to access the internet at the same time, then you need a router. Plus if you have additional device that needs an internet connection to work, a router will solve your problem.

What is a router?

A router is a network device that delivers Internet Protocol (IP) data packets to and from multiple computers or devices on a network. You may already have a router attached your DSL or Cable modem and your computer. A router allows you to connect more than one device to your Internet connection at the same time. It acts as a junction between two or more networks to transfer data packets among them.

Your router must:

• Be DSL/Cable Modem web-safe
• Provide NAT (Network Address Translation)
• Provide DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

Most routers support these requirements.

Local Area Network (LAN)

A local area network (LAN) is a group of computers and associated devices that share a common communications line or wireless link. By far the most common type of data network. A LAN serves a local area (typically the area of a floor, in close proximity to each other such as in an office building, home, or school.)

Another reminder to everybody, PLEASE PROTECT YOUR PC

PLEASE PROTECT YOUR PC- YOU PROTECT YOUR PC, YOU PROTECT THE SERVER.

Today I'll leave you with this reminder, again, please protect your pc, scan your pc for viruses, spyware, adware, malware, trojans and other threats / unwanted software.

How do I do this, you ask?

1. Use a Firewall
• This helps keep out hackers and some viruses, if you have a router at home or at the office, most of them have a built in firewall, but you might have to enable it. If you have Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Home and Windows XP Media Center, you have to enable the firewall, or use a firewall software app of your choice.
  
2. Secure your wireless connection
• All wireless connection by default don't have protection enabled, you have to enable it the first time you use it, if not you're vulnerable
3. For Windows users, always download the latest update
4. Install Antivirus Software
   
• PLEASE SEE MY PREVIOUS POST IT HAS SOME SITES WHERE YOU CAN GET THESE FREE SOFTWARES
  
5. Fight Spyware
• Get windows Defender from Microsoft, it is a free program that helps, protect your pc against security threats caused by spyware and other unwanted software
• This was also in my previous post, you can find the download link here.
6. Backup your files regularly.

Remember, YOU PROTECT YOUR PC, YOU PROTECT THE SERVER

Another Sound Card Problem, with HP A1510n

Remember 2 of my previous post about the sound card problem on a HP Pavilion A1510n
I have another one, the same problem involving a sound card, this one running windows 2000 professional. I did the same thing, I downgraded the OS from Windows XP Media Center, W2k Pro to have full network functionality, after Win2k installation, I simply used the recovery disk that I created so I can have Win2k Detect and install the hardware. The video was installed with no problem, same with the LAN interface and the modem, except the sound card.

Anyway, on the other HP Pavilion A1510n see these post:

• HP Pavilion A1510n Sound Card on Windows Xp
• Problem with HP Pavilion A1510n Sound Card
• Comp USA Sound Card for the HP Pavilion A1510n

So yeah, we bought another Comp USA Sound Card, and installed in this Win2k PC, but on this one, the driver that came with PCI Sound card, also didn't work. I'm still trying to figure out my next move. Any suggestions? Let me work on it and I'll get back to you.
