I see my anology wasn't clearly said. The anology was 'does not appeal to novices':'appeals to novices'::'does not appeal to novices':'appeals to novices' My point is MySQL, like PHP, adds alot of flexibility at the price of speed. Not that MySQL is written in one language or another.

C++ VS. PHP Why is C++ so much faster than PHP? When a language or program appeals to novices, it loses speed. Why do you think PHP/MySQL are very popular? ( Also why else would I be using PHP/MySQL? )

Your ISP could be disabling you from having ports enabled. Most ISPs do, unless you buy their business version. Have you checked if they are blocking it?

I suppose this topic was mostly a question if google was doing it or a virus, which clearly from these responses, google isn't the cause. Just seems like such a harmless virus for a virus. Okay thanks for the responses.

There seems to be like a 10% chance that whenever I click on a result, my browser will be redirected to some other totally irrelevant page. I have only had this happen on google. (The pages I get redirected to are usually another search engine.) Do you think its some sort of virus or has google actually added some feature where you click on a result and it redirects you to something else? The only problem with it being a virus is why only google? And why only 10% of the time? (The 10% isn't a very precise measurement.) Also whats even stranger is I've only had this happen on IE and never FF, but I suppose this could be coincidence as I rarely use FF. So could it be a IE virus only affecting google? Doesn't make any sense to me and if I do have a virus, why only my browser? Seems like there could be many more valuable things to do with a virus.

Actually, he might have done something and since I don't want to speak out of ignorance, ignore this post.

I'd think PHP is faster than some languages (Although I can't name you any.). Others it isn't as fast. Mostly though, the speed of code depends on the programmer. PHP is not meant for speed of processing, but speed of how fast you can code. My observations atleast.

I don't care much for the voice-acting.

I have atleast 3 recorded free web host providers with no banners*, MySQL and PHP from 2006. If thats not enough, when I was looking for a free one back 3 years ago, there was a top 250 or maybe 100 list of PHP/MySQL free web hosts. Although I must say the freehosting has been much more effective since 2006. *2 out of 3 of them had no banners. The one that did have banners died out 2 years ago.

Is that a joke? 200 people at 5GB for bandwidth? Even with a maximum, so less than 200, I can't see it being active with more than (At 1 page refresh every 1 second with each page being 1KB which is very generous to give you but made up by 1 page click a second): 2 people. Here I'll show you my math. 5 * 1024 * 1024 (5 gigabytes to kilobytes) / 2592000 (Time in a month) = 2 This of course is assuming they are on 24/7, but 2 people VS 200...Erm...
