Asp.net development server stopped working
just like on 10/03/09 ? Yeah thank MicroSoft for that they released an update on Windows Defender that defends you from working.

Stupid thing changes hosts file to some apparently IPv6 shite but messes up ur developmet server

Here is what to do:

1. Locate the hosts file with notepad "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts"
2. Find line that says "::1 localhost"
3. Replace it with "127.0.0.1 localhost"
4. Save
5. Windows defender is gonna notify you that you might got hijacked!
6. Tell it to go fuck itself

Job Done - you can work again!

Sony Ericsson P1i won't play video from m.youtube.com

PROBLEM:

When you are connected using WIFI to your own network and you can browse the web ok with the P1i but you go to http://m.youtube.com/ (mobile youtube that has videos in 3gp format for mobile devices) and you click Watch Video - the phone would buffer it to 100% but then say could not connect to the specified location.

RESOLUTION:

Problem is with your router blocking the ports that are needed by the P1i to stream the video.

1. Assign a static IP to the phone (example 192.168.1.192) (this is for security so that you don't open the ports to all devices on your network)
2. On your router under Open ports setup to that IP (192.168.1.192)

3. Setup the port redirection table as per the picture below
