Question #1:

Who owns domain names before they are registered?

I'm pretty web/tech-savvy but this is something a google query just don't give me an answer for! In essence, who the money goes to when you buy it.

This gets further complicated when you take domain name registration sites, such as 123-reg who offer monthly/yearly subscriptions of domain names. I suppose they're like the 'middle men', so if you were to cut them out all together where would you go? and can you purchase domains without 'renting' them from these crappy sites?

Thanks for any light which could be shed...
Thanks for the answer, but i wanted to add a bit more detail of what i mean.

I'm not really interested in the hosting side - i know how that all works, I've made and run websites in the past. Most hosts will also rent you domains too, but that's not what i was interested in.

I could even host the material on my own server and use my own internet for bandwidth - only caring purely about the domain name.

Is it possible to flat out buy a domain, not just sign a contract and get it for 12 months? If that were to happen, who would get the money. This is where i can't understand how it woks.

Thanks

Question #2:

09-10 Schedule - how to deal with the stress of classes!?

OK here is my schedule for the first trimester of my sophomore year...

1. World History

2. Psychology - trying to be switched out of b/c i signed up for entry level psych. and this is advanced.
3. Spanish III

4. Biology

5. Algebra


Ok, that's the schedule. I'm gonna try to switch out of psych. for like a computer or art class. But all the other classes I have are super hard! I have them like all in the same trimester.
PLUS, the scheduled my 2nd trimester wrong because 3 of the 5 classes are electives (photography, intermediete art and web tech). AHH! That would be like a blow-off tri for me and then the other tri's (1st and 3rd) would be super hard!! My mom is trying to fix it (she emailed the princaple and is trying to be in contact with him to change the schedule) so I hope it can all be fixed. I just don't want my sophomore year to be all screwy, you know?!
I'm sorry. I just needed to vent to somebody. I know what alot of you are thinking..."i have bigger problems than that, grow up" but i'm scared.
Even if i do get psych. switched (which i have faith i will) to an art class or something, the academic load is still pretty large. Any tips on how to manage all that HW and studying for math, science, spanish 3 and history?!?!
I'm a good student. I got all 4.0's last year with the exception of one 3.5 in my last trimester of geometry.
I just need encouragement! Thanks.
If you prefer to email me, me email is rebeccakost@yahoo.com

Question #3:

Question #4:

Computer Engineering vs Computer Science?

Hey, I currently have Associates in both Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology and I need about 3 more semesters for my bachelors. A couple of professors (I’m good friends with) have told me, if I want to make real money, I should switch over to Electrical or Computer Engineering. The only problem is I will basically have to start all over. (Computer Technology does not equal Computer Engineering because the courses are at a higher level).

So, instead of Engineering, I was thinking of switching over to Computer Science. But what is Computer Science really? Is it all programming? I enjoy working with computers, building/repairing, and networking. In the CET field, we were required to take some CS classes such as, C++ 1/2, assembly lang, operating sys, Web Tech, multimedia, and networking 1/2. Is there another major that would suit me better?

Question #7:

How should I brush up on VB Script and .NET?

I have an interview next week for a job testing websites. They want someone who is knowledgable with VB-Script and C# / .NET. I have several years experience with VBA, and am very comfortable in general with Web tech (HTML, ASP, etc..).

They are willing to take someone who is a little light, but I really wanna ace this interview. Does anyone have any suggestions (general, or particular articles, etc.. available on the web) to help me "Cram" a little? I don't expect to be an expert in a week. But I want to:

1. Translate my VBA experience into VB Script "Knowledge"
2. Display at minimum, a very strong conceptual knowledge of .NET

I live in a German Speaking city in Europe, so buying books is out. I can't find English computer books on short notice. I'm looking for web-based resources that can help me cram.

I know, an odd question. But I think I will do well in the job, and it's bad enough that I have to do the interview in German (I am only self-taught),so I really wanna shine technically.

Thanks!

Question #8:

HELP Yahoo IM & Webmessenger vs. AIM HELP?

I can't get my Yahoo IM to work, I guess the company FW is blocking but I don't think so, bc I had it working before.

I can't even get the Yahoo Browser based Webmessenger to work.

But my AIM Web browser based IM works. so I know it's not being blocked.

I brought this problem up to Yahoo web tech's before 3 years ago, but they never fixed it.

Why does my AOL AIM Web IM work but not Yahoo's Web IM?

Can someone help please?

I'm running Vista, and I tried it w both IE and Firefox, neither works for Yahoo web IM, BUT AIM works.

Thanks
deleting this account, and creating a new one is not an option, bc I've had it too long, plus it's tied to my yahoo email account.

Besides, this IM account works from my broadband at home, just not from work.

Can someone answer a technical question?
Why does AOL AIM Webmessenger work from my work place, but not Yahoo's WebMessenger. Both are browser and not download, but the yahoo one has never worked in several locations for me. I don't get it, for such a large company like yahoo, you figured they would have resolved this by now.
even my GMAIL IM works, but not yahoo's. I reported this over 3 years ago to their tech department.

Question #11:

American Web Tech?

Hi. Does anyone know if American Web Tech is a good company? They have you pay $195 to set up a business site where you only basically have to direct traffic to your site through advertising. Has anyone used this company or knows if it is legit? They say you recieve 60% commision on all orders and they receive 5%. That clearly makes it sound like a scam but they actually contacted me via phone with a 1-800 number and talked to me. Also, if you do know of a legit online business, please mention it. Thank you.

Question #16:

Should I tell my boss about my depression?

I'm currently 21 years old. When I was 15 yrs old, I started feeling very depressed. During that time I also started cutting myself. This went on until I was 18. I saw a counselor for 3 days, and stopped going.

Recently, things started getting out of control and I knew I needed help. So for the past 3 weeks I've been seeing a counselor 2 times a week, and met with a doctor and was placed on anti-depressents. I was also diagnosed with severe Major Depressive Disorder - Recurrent.

I'm currently a student employee as a web tech at my community college, and have a great boss. The problem is that I'm worried she might start getting upset because I've been asking to miss work to go to my appointments. However she doesn't know it's to see my counselor and doctor. I'm worried that she's going to maybe not believe that I have appointments 2-3/wk.

So my main question is... should I talk with my boss and let her know my current situation? Should I tell her about my depression disorder?
One of the problems with rescheduling is that I'm a full-time student, and work on and off campus (for the same boss). I am either in class or work from 8am - 4:30pm, and my counselor's offices close at 5pm.

So far I've been letting my boss know I have appointments and have to leave early, or I sometimes end up skipping class to go to my appointments.

Question #17:

choosing the best webserver?

i have to do a senior project by the end of my senior year (next year) i'm currently a junior.
i'm in high school of course.
I have used apache server on windows xp, and php, but not mysql
my project includes me making a webserver, website, and client application.
I'm going to have to job shadow a computer programmer. or a web tech.
i dont know.
but my question is should i install windows (which i cant get a copy) or just run the ubuntu linux server, but then that kind of limits me, that means i cant run a online game that uses windows clients, i think. I'm confused. what would you recommend. Learning C++ is a last choice. LETS TRY ALTERNATIVES.
BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!BUMP!

Question #18:

Question #19:

Will these senior mid-year grades effect my admission to certain schools?

Hey, so this is my situation: At the moment, I am feeling like my senior year mid-year grades arent going to turn out so well and worried that some colleges may look down on them. I think that I will end up with 4 As: government, web-tech, english, and physics and a C in both AP calculus ab and AP chemistry. Now, the AP grades are weighted so they would count as Bs instead of Cs and they are both hard APs so maybe the colleges will recognize that fact too. I recieved a 1920 on the SATs and ended up with a 3.57 gpa for highschool. Although the gpa is a tad low, I have taken all honors classes and APs through highschool and had an increasing gpa each year (9th: 3.1 10th: 3.6 11th: 4.1). I also have good scores on 3 SAT subject tests. Excluding my sports and extra-curriculars, how much do you think my mid-year report will effect my admission into schools like william and mary, UVA, Boston College, and Boston University? I am also a resident of virginia by the way.
