COPY G:\KILLDISK.EXE A:

DOS4GW.EXE is a required file for Active@ KillDisk, Active@ UNERASER and Active@ Disk Image.

Answer 2

downloading = retrieving data from another computer or data source

uploading = posting or placing data to another computer or data source

loading = loading a program or data into memory

proxy server = an intermediately device that intercepts (internet) traffic, verifies if the sender has the correct credentials, and if they do, allows the data to pass through the proxy server, and on to its destination.

graphics card = a device in a computer that is used to drive a display device, such as a monitor

cartridge = an interchangeable modular device that contains consumable material. An example of this is a printer toner cartridge. A cassette tape is also a form of cartridge.

Answer 3

There is a free encyclopedia at: http://en.wikipedia.org

You can search any of those terms you mentioned and it will clarify the meaning of each of them.

On your last question: "And how would you assign coordinates in an image map. Do you just guess and hope you get lucky?"

If the image map is for hyperlinks, whatever software you are using it should give you the shape or form to do the image map.... in other softwares, you may extend the coverage area needed, and in others, you may assign the exact position required.

Have fun!
