Some ASP hosting companies allow users to upload any ASP programs that they
want. But, as you know, ASP programs can do virtually everything, including
running components, doing disk operations, even reformatting a hard-disk!
How do ASP hosting companies prevent users from doing harmful operations
like that?

Can you elaborate on this a bit more? Is this done via IIS? Can you give
me some examples?

its simply a matter of file level permissions on the executables.

I need some good hosting. I found www.webhost4life.com and I was been very
happy because they give a lot of features very cheap. But I have read many
bad things about this hosting, so I need some better, but not very expensive
like http://www.hostinguk.net.
I need some hosting with .NET 2.0, SQL Server 2000/2005/expres, Access,
Unlimited bandwith and mutiple domains on one account. Which hosting is good
for me?

Hello,
I am working on a project for a potential customer.
The project will basically involve an ASP.Net 2.0 application and a
database (ideally MS SQL). The customer has already a hosting plan but it
does not currently include a MS SQL database. This option is offered as a
rather expensive add-on (600 US $ /year).
If we need cost saving, I could offer to set-up a MS SQL 2005 DB on my own

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
