Blogger: Time to disable word verification?

I've noticed since the last few days, Blogger has added automatic spam detection for comments. Under the Comments tab on your Dashboard, you will find a new Spam inbox section.



Blogger will send all the comments that it thinks spam into the spam inbox automatically. This is a great addition to Blogger. I believe we can now disable word verification while submitting comments. Some people find it annoying and because of this you may be receiving fewer comments than you actually deserve.

I have disabled word activation. Lets see how effective this is going to be.

How to resolve 'res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm#' error (Internet Explorer stopped working while viewing a website)

While testing a website I was developing, I got an error message saying "Internet Explorer has stopped working". This is followed by this line added before the URL: res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm# . I was using Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 7 64-bit machine. I tried disabling all add-ons in IE but that did not resolve the issue. I've found this solution to my problem: From Tools menu, open "Internet options". Go to the Advanced tab. Under "Accelerated graphics", tick the box that says "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering". Click Apply and Ok. Test your website. You might need to restart your computer if it does not immediately show any effect. This worked for me.

Step 1: Go to your DNS provider's website and point each of those purchased domains to the server that is hosting your main domain. In other words, add the IP address of your hosting server in the A record. Step 2: Log in to your WHM. Then park each domain on top of the main domain. You may be able to do this in cPanel > Aliases but I haven't tried. Step 3: If you have AutoSSL enabled, all the additional parked domains will automatically get SSL added. This may take some time. Alternatively, you can go to WHM > Manage AutoSSL and Run AutoSSL Check. Step 4: Add your parked domains to your .htaccess file as shown below. Note the "$" at the end of this line: ^www\.mywebsite\.com$ . This
