Companies that Steal Intellectual Property for Website Design

I decided to write this post because I am so freaking tired of chasing down these idiots that steal website content from me. I will update it as time goes by with various companies that I find that steal my (or my company's) intellectual property. So, if you "borrowed" white-papers, website text content, blog content, or stolen images from any of the dozen websites I own, expect to ultimately see your name posted up here.

I constantly battle with these a$holes trying to get my content removed, but at least I can start to put a list together of crappy companies that suck, so if anyone is interested in hiring them, they may find my list and make an informed decision. FYI: Most of the companies are from India.

If you see yourself on this list, please drop me a comment, beg for forgiveness and remove my content from your site, and maybe, just maybe, I might remove you from the list.

My List of website content thieves:
  • www.indiamart.com and the website designer: www.intermesh.net. These idiots stole custom made graphics off of my company's website (Source One Graphic)

    Registered Graphic Thief: Technical Contact: IndiaMART InterMESH Limited Domain Administrator (domains@indiamart.com) +1.1202424945 Fax: +1.1202424943 B-1, Sector 8 Noida, DELHI 201301 IN

  • http://sages.win.mofcom.gov.cn/ this company in China copied text right off my company's site. Not sure if the use of .gov is the same in China, but I would not put it past the government over there to steal content either. (original content, which I have now started to modify)

    Unfortunately I can't track cn domain thieves

  • www.ready-sourcing.com/ready-sourcing/strategic-sourcing.html - These guys suck as well, stole the same page that the Chinese company above stole.

    This thief paid to hide their registration information for the domain name.

  • Removed by blog author - This horrible blog is set up to look like a company website and it appears that every page is stolen right off of some other company's website.

    Registered Content Thief:
    ------------------- Hamilton, Ontario L8W 1L5 Canada Phone: +1.905------- Fax..: Email: ------@----.net Last modified: 2008-07-04 19:34:43 GMT  (The owner of this site contacted me and removed the offending material, therefore I removed their listing from my page)

  • More to come!!!
Feel free to drop some comments if you want to tell the world about someone that stole from you.

Running Navision 3.7 Client in Windows 7

It took a bit of work, but I am now successfully running Navision client 3.7 in a Windows 7 computer. This is great news for any business, like mine, where we could not afford to upgrade to Navision 4.0 in order to be compatible with Vista, and now with Windows 7.
So, how was it done.
First, go get yourself the Windows 7 Release Candidate (free till June 2010)
Then, read this tutorial:
http://lifehacker.com/5245396/set-up-and-use-xp-mode-in-windows-7

It tells you how to get Windows XP Virtual machine running on Windows 7. Follow the steps in the tutorial. Once XP finally launches, go in to user setup and create an account for the user that will be using the machine. You will also need to join your local domain as well as set up printers (or reports will not work in navision, even in preview mode). Once done, reboot your machine.
Next, when windows 7 loads up again, go into the VM properties, and delete the default account "User" this will then prompt you for a username and password the next time you launch the VM client.
Once it is working properly and you can run Navision inside the VM client, simply copy the shortcut from the XP machine (to Navision) and jump back over to your windows 7 desktop and cut and paste. From this point on, you can run Navision 3.7 as a virtualized application directly from Windows 7.

If you need more detailed instructions, just let me know.

Restarting MySql in FreeBSD Unix

How to start mysql in free bsd unix.

Okay, for you unix geeks out there, this is elementary information and "no duh" but for other people that are new to it, I figured I would post this tutorial.

I recently ran into a problem with my unix box running out of disk space and causing mysql to crash. The symptoms were basically that I could no longer hold sessions or log-in to my hosted website that we built. However, queries of the mysql server from php webpages were still working.

Anyhow, I cleaned up some disk space and rebooted the box, and now mysql was completely shut down, I could not get my php webpages to load. I looked into the system and ran the 'top' command in unix and noticed that mysqld was not started on the box.

So, I was trying to find out how to restart mysql in bsd and could not find a simple command anywhere.

This is what worked for me ultimately:

Go to the directory that stores mysql, for me, it meant navigating to
/var/db/mysql
then simply type: mysqld_safe

That should start up mysqld

Note: when I was trying to start it without the _safe portion tacked to it, like "start mysql" I would get a socket error telling, so the mysqld_safe is the way to go.
