No Internet Access

01Nov06

It’s a real bummer not having any Internet access, but that is the case I find myself in. You see, Lauren and I have moved into a temporary house in the country until we find a place to stay closer to our work. I was set on not buying Internet access and TV until we find a more permanent dwelling, but slowly my mind is changing.

Living away from everything is nice, but it does present it share of problems. Ideally, I would like to purchase a cable Internet and TV combo and only use cell phones in order to keep bills to a minimum.

Where we live at now, slow dial-up Internet access :( is our only option (other than satellite I suppose). Additionally, dial-up access requires us to pay for home phone service.

Things don’t look much better for TV. Cable isn’t an option. The house doesn’t have an antenna so I can’t pick up the free channels and I don’t plan on purchasing an antenna for a temp. house. I

    Hey Matt,

    Congrats on your increase in Adsense and your first TLA referral. I hope it came from my site! Yeah I just don’t have enough time to implement all the stuff I want to do with GolfChum and ChipandChat. But I like having these 2 sites anyway in my portfolio - adds to my diversity!

    New family life sounds good, I hope you’re enjoying it. Would love to hear more about it so Im eagerly awaiting your next post!

    I didnt get to go on the internet yesterday so I didn’t notice that I had been hacked (its working now). However I checked my stats and my visitors were way down. Did you manage to get a screenshot of the hack message so I can show my readers? What did it say?

    I’ve browsed through most of the site and it appears to be OK. But thanks so much for telling me about it - maybe Blogtrepreneur is getting more popular thus making it a more popular hacking target lol :)
    That is a nuisance though so I’ll have a word with my host.
    Thanks a lot Matt,
    Adnan

    Hey Matt,
    Hows it going mate?

    Can you go to my website please. For me its loading really slowly and its just taking ages to show up. Is this the same for you?
    Also when I make a post, although the new article appears on the homepage an error page comes up saying something about AF Extended Live Archives. Could you take a look at that if you have the time and if you’re able to access my site.

    Thanks man,
    Adnan

    Lol no comments!

    Thanks for deleting those pages - it was a bit scary seeing login details to my blog. Let’s hope no1 picked up on that!

    If you login to my blog and just post a little article or something, you’ll see that when you click publish it shows an error page - even though the article publishes. Try posting and you’ll see what I mean.

    The error message tells me about a function not working on line …. in the AF Extended Live Archives.

    I hope you get your internet soon. I can’t wait to start talking and emailing you.
    Hope everythings going well for you,
    Adnan

    Hi Matt - I havnt had a response back from you about the problem on Blogtrepreneur.
    Now there seems to be 3 issues:

    1) Whenever I publish a post/comment an error appears saying:

    Warning: fopen(/home/blogtrep/public_html/wp-content/plugins/af-extended-live-archive/cache/2006-11.dat) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/blogtrep/public_html/wp-content/plugins/af-extended-live-archive/af-extended-live-archive-include.php on line 723

    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/blogtrep/public_html/wp-content/plugins/af-extended-live-archive/af-extended-live-archive-include.php:723) in /home/blogtrep/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php on line 269

    2) A commenter said that he was unable to Unsubscribe from Comments for a particular post. He was taken to the 404 Error Page when he tried to Unsubscribe.

    3) For me the site is loading really slowly and the sidebar main content takes ages to turn up. Is this a problem for anyone else?

    Thanks and I would really appreciate it if you could manage to fix these. Thanks,
    Adnan
