“Execute access is denied” error message connecting to new Web site

\ by

Here's a quick IIS Setup list of steps for a new web site. Maybe that's why you got the error.

Something I always forget the steps, and the order is critical. 

  1. Create your new local asp.net website
  2. From windows explorer make the website source directory and its sub directories Read Write by setting the properties.
  3. Copy these web site folders and files to the isp provider web folder.
  4. Open up the IIS wizard and create new site. Point to the web folder.
  5. For IP address and port settings (default and 80 for me) add multiple host header values (e.g. www.mywebsite.net mywebsite.net etc.) to match your DNS values.

WD Anywhere Backup – How to quit MAC OSX 10.4

\ by

MAC is prevented from shutting down by this application after installing.

Simply Force Quit the first time. Maybe even before creating a backup plan as I think it is lost. (It came back, but by then I'd had to create another.)

The next time you boot and create a plan, the application will have enabled the Quit application file menu item.  

I didn't have this problem in OSX 10.5, and a different version was available.

Setup
  1. I set the volume by using the V-olume meter and using the direct sound inputs rather than the sound card adapter (that is also effected by the master volume control)
  2. I changed the original settings in VirtualDub to use the huffyuv compression. That really helped in reducing the output file size.
  3. Here's a VB guide with some settings
