Solving Problem Creatively Over the Net


Since I got my internet privileges last 3 month, I had learn and encounter
many weird and wonderful things. I have met the ugly side of internet and learnt
something called "if you overspend your time limit, the phone bill gonna be very
ugly."Perhaps the most interesting moment I encounter in the internet is when I
discover homepage making. I made a homepage from learning HTML language from a
web site. I want my homepage to be bold and simple but most of all animation-
free. As a surfer myself, I know how it feels when entering a homepage that is
full with high resolution graphic and animation. The animation had to be reload
and reload again. Within 2 hours I managed to made myself a homepage.I also know
to make an impressive homepage,one must have a high counter number so that
people will revisit the homepage again. I can't use any "sensual" word to
attract people cause it's against Geocities's rule. So I did a very nasty thing.
I cheated, I put an extra counter number in my homepage beside my origi nal
counter number so each time when it reload it will look like this---->0101.While
the only people who visited my homepage was myself, but instead the counter
number show 101.

MIRC The Solution

When my PC suffered a data crash, I lost all my data. I lost all my e-mail
address and most importantly my browser.The computer technician managed to
repair my PC but he gave me an old version of Netscape.I have trouble using it
in Win'95.So I downloaded the later version of Netscape.The downloading seize
when it reaches 52%. I had to reload if I were to use Netscape.Instead I used
MIRC to download the program because MIRC come with this neat feature that allow
me to resume downloading where I left out. As a result, I get to continue my
downloading at 17564 byte from a friend.

I'm The Biggest Leech

The rule of warez is-to download you must upload. The warez people even
wrote a scipt to ban people who didn't upload when they download. To upload any
program of mine to anyone will take forever, all the file I have is at least 6
MB long. So what I did was gather all my saved file and compress it, it sum up
to 1.5 MB long and named it Ultra.zip.Then I sent it to the warez people. I
found out that if you send the same file for the second time, the script will
recognize it as a diffrent file and immediately add credit to my downloading
account. As a result I got 9MB of credit within minutes when actually I sent
1.5MB.
