Difference between web designer and web developer
Posted on January 10, 2011 under Answers, Web Design, Web Development | 3 Comments
My classmates and I were having a friendly argument on the difference between a web designer and a web developer… or are they the same? Which according to you is a better bet for the future? Could you also let us know is the average salaries of web designers and web developers?
Matthew Richardson
You know, I’ve never given this much of thought. I’ve spent years in the web business and all what I know is self taught. I still buy tons of books and magazines (you should see the monthly bill), read thousands of blogs, forums, newsletters etc. but have never attended a formal web design or a web development class. So what I tell you in this post is primarily shooting from the hip except for the web designer and web developer salary information which has been gleaned off the web (where else?).

How to make Windows Live Mail look like Windows Mail
Posted on December 16, 2010 under Answers, Windows Live Mail, Windows Mail | 1 Comment
I’ve got a new computer, a Windows 7 laptop. It has Windows Live Mail program which I have begun using; thanks for putting up simple instructions for beginners like us. But I certainly miss my old Windows Mail software. Is there a way Windows Live Mail can be made to look like Windows Mail?
Irene Ouma
Windows Live Mail is the new email client from Microsoft and differs markedly from the programs it replaces – Outlook Express (XP) and Windows Mail (Vista). The differences are, however, cosmetic; the basic functionality remains the same. Here are simple instructions on how to make Windows Live Mail look like Windows Mail (Vista) program.

Would appreciate your specialist comments.
Derek Styles
Outlook Express helpfully displays an error message when it’s not able to send email. The message typically has an error number, which for most people carries no meaning and simply adds to the frustration. The Outlook Express 0x800CCC79 error is a case in point. Here is a simple solution to resolve the problem.

Email unavailable – is it possible to get back your address?
Posted on December 16, 2010 under Answers, Email | Leave a comment
My wife wants to open a new Gmail account with the address of [deleted]. It says it’s taken. We believe that it was taken by us some years ago and now it says it is unavailable. Is the email account still alive and being used or is it dormant?
Gerry
Free accounts provided by services like Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo! have one catch – the email address will expire if it’s not used frequently. Depending on the service, this period of inactivity can vary from a few days to months. Users, thus, have to login at least once to continue maintaining the account else the email will become unavailable.

Hotmail account deactivated in 24 hours because of unsuccessful login attempts mail scam
Posted on December 15, 2010 under Hotmail | 4 Comments
I got an email today in which I was asked to sign in or my email will be deactivated. Is this a scam? The email mentioned that my Hotmail email account will be deactivated in 24 hours because of several unsuccessful login attempts. Is this a scam?
Felisha Shaw
It’s not very difficult to identify an email scam – in your case, it looks like a phishing attempt. So here is a little exercise. Let’s see if you can spot the elements by which I’ve arrived at the conclusion that this ‘Hotmail account will be deactivated because of unsuccessful login attempts’ doesn’t originate from the legitimate Windows Live Hotmail service.
