    Hi All,
    Did finally get a working blog and index listing on a static page. This is what I wanted,rather than a continuous stream of enties. Now have to digest how the heck I did it with the HTML coding! Now need to also figure out a “return” to “index” function.

    In the process of looking for answers to my corrupted zip file headers, I came acreoss this information. Was not aware of these happenings, and am now able to understand the process. Did have to download the p2pConverter seven times, before one would correctly upload without the zip file stating “corrupted header”.

    Why am I suddenly getting “header corrupt” messages when I run self-extractors?
    Frequently, the problem with corrupted self-extractors (and corrupted .zip
    files, as well) is that an error has been introduced into the file during
    download (e.g., by phone line noise). Normally, downloading the file again
    resolves the problem. If, however, repeated attempts to download the file do not
    result in a good copy, your computer may be infected by a virus.
    In mid-1998, a new virus named CIH was released (it first showed up in Taiwan in
    June, 1998). Other names for this virus include “W95.CIH”, “Chernobyl”, and
    “Spacefiller”. This virus has been reported in a large number of executable
    files, including self-extracting Zip files created using WinZip Self-Extractor.
    This is not a problem in the WinZip or WinZip Self-Extractor applications
    distributed by WinZip Computing. Rather, the problem is that the self-extractor
    you’re trying to run may have been infected with this virus. All executable
    files are susceptible to virus infection, and since self-extractors are
    executable files, they are susceptible to virus infection, as well.
    An executable file can become infected with a virus such as CIH in at least
    three ways:
    Your computer is itself actively infected, and when you copied the executable
    to your computer (e.g., via download or from a floppy disk), or otherwise
    processed it, the executable became infected with the virus.
    The person who created the executable (i.e., the self-extractor) did so on a
    computer where the virus was active, so that the original copy of the
    self-extractor was infected.
    The executable passed through an infected computer on its journey from the
    original source computer to your computer.
    The symptoms of virus infection can vary. Sometimes, there is no visible symptom
    at all until the virus destroys enough data on your computer that the computer
    no longer functions properly. With self-extractors created using WinZip
    Self-Extractor, the “corrupt header” message occurs in many cases when these
    self-extractors are run on computers infected with CIH. (This may serve as a
    kind of “early warning” that your computer is infected. You should not, however,
    assume that the absence of such a message means that your computer is clean.)
    If you suspect your computer is infected with the CIH virus (or with any other
    virus), we recommend that you run a reliable virus scanner with the latest virus
    updates. It is also a good precaution to virus scan all executable files,
    including self-extracting Zip files, you receive from any source that you do not
    trust absolutely.
    As far as we know, the current versions of Norton AntiVirus, AVP, and the
    registered version (but not the evaluation version) of F-Secure (formerly
    F-PROT) currently can recognize the CIH virus.

    Did get help from a forum member,and free install.
    Thank you for preserving my sanity, michael.
    Just not wanting to get deep into setting up programs anymore, recreating the wheel so to speak. I thought I was following instructions on setting up WordPress, yet I was making zero progress. Seems that what I’m looking for in my domain setup, is more for the fast brilliant minds that show in many posts. Am showing my blogs, so one could see the cumbersome index method i used, and the type of information being posted. Seems that the faster I go , the behinder I get ( LOL )and compared to what I would like to have, I’m not even born yet, behinder wise.

    Do I need a separate database for each of my blog’s?

    What I had in mind, was a page, showing all my blogs,on one main Blog page.

    Would want links from the main blog page, to open an Index page with links to a specific post.

    So that specific blog index, could be clicked to go to that specific post, where it could be read.

    There would be a return link back to the same index page.
    Have a cumbersome index page on my Blogger blogs with links to posts..
    Now if what I would like to have is impractical, how could I retain all the individual blogs in WordPress,( by importing ) to use the same way as in Blogger, using the one domain name I do have?

    ( the blogs I want to put into my ” thetalker.org ” domain are these )

    Am going through post here in the forum, and reading those that would apply to what I would like on my WordPress setup on my new domain. It may also be improper to be showing my blog’s, if so would immediately delete. Any light into my foggy brain is appreciated.

    Little by slow little, am finfing tidbits, that may get me to where I can actually understand and use the information.
