--------------------

I've been working hard for you lately. You may not have known it,
but I have. All of the knowledge that Lighthouse Technologies has
acquired over the years is now making its way to an official set of
e-books.

Over the years we've had customers asking a lot of questions about
web services, web acronyms, and how to deal with different
situations.

With that in mind, I decided to start documenting and sharing all
the information I have about different web-related subjects. I've
completed several, and plan on doing a few more as time permits.
The three that are complete are:
* Web Buyer's Guide - A comprehensive list of web acronyms and
buzzwords. What they mean and how to compare hosting companies'
features.
* Hosting Refugee - Many people host their website on unreliable
servers - how to dump that host for a GREAT one!
* The Website Process - Everything you need to know about getting a
website, from start to finished online product.

These e-books retail for $9.95 each, but during August and September
they have been reduced to only $7.00 each!

These e-books can help you make informed decisions about your
website, your hosting, and more. Learn about new features that you
didn't know existed, and understand what your web designer or
hosting company is telling you.

Be an informed customer!

PLUS - Until the end of the month, you can purchase all three
current e-books for only $15.00 - a savings of 50%!
Get them now at http://www.techlh.com/docs/whitepapers.htm

Hurry, this offer only lasts another eleven days!

Web Designers - Offer these e-books to your clients! You can
purchase reseller rights for all three e-books and resell them on
your site, or provide them to potential clients and increase your
chances of landing that contract!

Windows XP Breaks Your Computer

The new Windows XP Service Pack is out - and causing trouble.
Before you upgrade your system with the new update, you should check
out this article from eWeek:

http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1636075,00.asp

Many IT managers are putting off the installation of the new service
pack, as I can imagine fixing a few hundred (or thousand) computers
would cause quite a headache. While most of the affected programs
seem to be server-related, you should definitely investigate the
list of programs before installing the update.

If you do not update your PC regularly, you really should consider
doing it today. You can update your Windows Operating System by
visiting http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Many people who have a Microsoft Office Suite (Office 97, 2000, or
XP) may not realize that there are patches for this software as
well. Visit http://office.microsoft.com/officeupdate to see if your
PC needs patching
--------------------

As always, I wish you the best in your life and business!

Until next time, thanks for reading.
