How to activate Windows Server 2008

Well, recently I've tried to activate my LAB's Server. It is Windows Server 2008. It will be expired if I don't activate it till the day after tomorrow. and.....this is the way how to do it :

1. If you are in one of campus or something that used proxy and enclosed with user authentication as well as its password, you have to find another internet connection that doesn't using authentication. Because I've been tried it, and the result is not so good. It comes error. But, if you have direct connection internet, It is no problem..
2. Using command prompt just type :

• c:\windows\system32\>cscript \windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk SERIAL-NUMBER-SEPARATED-BY-DASH
• c:\windows\system32\>cscript \windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato

That's all..
Good Luck...

Create user and its own database on phpmyadmin

Now, we can try to create an user and its own database via phpmyadmin. We know that phpmyadmin is one of tools to manage our MySQL database via website. Here there are how to do it :

Open phpmyadmin with your browser: http://localhost/phpmyadmin.
First, we have to make a database for that user.
Then create user and its attributes, like password etc.
If we want that user only has full privilege to the database we had made before, then we go to Database -specific privileges-. On the options ‘use text-field’ choose the database we’ve made before then click options CHECK ALL and the last press GO

Done! The database has its own owner. Only the owner and root user can access into the database

Mozilla typing problem

Hmmm...
When I used my favorite browser, there is an anomaly within it. The character I typed is printed out from right to the left in the address bar. So...??? what I am supposed to do to fix that problem..
Actually, I asked someone beside me to solve the problem. He said that I have to close firefox process via TASK MANAGER. You got it..??
No..??
OMG!!!..
Just right click your taskbar and select TASK MANAGER, you can do that by pressing CTRL + ALT + Del simultaneously. Find 'firefox.exe' in Processes TAB of Task Manager. Click it, and terminate it by pressing End Process button..
