Those are great lol....You've won but you have to sign up for a dozen or so pay offers first. Hasn't the net just gotten so cool since more and more people discovered it. Almost like a 24hr infomercial of sorts. Wasn't that way in the late eighties when I first got online. The upside is it's pretty inexpensive to be online now and it's the ads we complain about that we have to thank for that, at least in part. Those and a larger user base.

Not as advanced but here's my google clone.

Was on the phone laughing at it with a friend and forgot to post the URL

  May be the start of WWIII lol......maybe it's cause they think it's a tank.

Alternatively, you can get a php script that searches google with your name always showing in the address bar since it is on your server......I got it off of hotscripts.com

If you mean what scripts then flatfile is the way to go. Go to http://hotscripts.com and do a search on what you are looking for. For forums I suggest Navboard or PBLAng. NavBoard is "lighter". As for a CMS Shadowed portal is good and includes forums.

We possibly could help if you gave us a little more information.
What is the name of the script you are trying to run?
Does it require mysgl or any other feature that isn't available on free service?
Did you correctly chmod the files through ftp?

I went to the site and I got the sub blue index page. The only time I've ever seen that index page is inside a template directory for phpbb. (IE: subSilver or subBlack) It looks like you have uploaded a the contents of a template folder to your home directory. And, if you are trying to use phpBB..it won't work with the free service unless you get a remote database. Give us additional info and perhaps someone can help

It was weird, I downloaded it but was given the option to skip verification....which I did. It works pretty well. Better than I expected since it's being marketed by Microsoft

I suggest shadowed flatfile portal. I found it on hotscripts.com. Works pretty well, fast and has forums as well as most of the features you need in a CMS

Taken from another site:

The BackWeb agent is the engine that controls the news and information updates for your subscribed channels (Active Desktop).
If you dont use it, or dont know how this program got onto your computer you can delete it as follows:
Go to the Start menu and select Settings -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs. Select Backweb and click "Remove".
If backwebagent is not shown in the list of add/remove programs you can try this to prevent it from startup:
Go to Start --> Run --> type "msconfig" in the box"
Select the tab "Start-up" and uncheck the mark at the program Backweb.
Restart your computer.
Although the program is still on the computer when you do this, at least it doesnt start when you boot your pc.

I found it on a google search in less than 30 seconds

I made this for someone who decided they wanted another color scheme so I'm just giving this to anyone who wants it. Now I'm working on the new one and just discarded this one since I have no use for it. It will install on phpBB 2.11-2.13 Anyways, Grab it if ya want

oooohh.......scared the pants off me. I was browsing another members free site when all of a sudden this voice rang out with a free offer. I think it was for an IPod. I hadn't noticed the pop under come up lol. Then I found myself falling for a gimic and wanted the product  It was cool, didn't interfere with the site at all...just frightened me for a moment

   My neighbor just got cable internet and I had to help set up the wireless router and now I'm thinking of getting myself a cheap card to see if I can intercept it lol....would be cool since he's close enough that it wouldn't lose much in the way of speed

To name a few:
People using the Database to host hack, warez, illegal MP3 sites or forums, using it to gain access into other users accounts. Hosting forums for hacking Satellite TV comes to mind and for illegal pornography. Lets say I gave someone a DB for a portal...a portal is basically a predefined site that a user adds content to. If someone wanted to use the portal to host and distribute illegal software or music then I could be held accountable for that site although I am only providing the database. That's why I'm thinking of doing forum hosting instead. It's much easier to clean up and monitor.

Just wondering what gets your goat on here lol.

My personal favorite is:
People not reading the info for free hosting before asking about their mysql
 

I read too many of these...I'm not trying to be rude or mean spirited. I just get tired of seeing the same question over and over and over and over and over.....etc. I just wonder who actually reads the info when signing up for hosting.

Ok, I'm done venting

T35 doesn't support mysql on the free service. You would have to get paid service for that. You can however get a free mysql db from hotsql.com.
