I am Desiging a GUI for an ADSL modem and the modem has a firmware which asks for a prompt login which is written in html/php . GUI is being developed with VIsual C++ and socket programming is real hard to crack the prompt Login so using telnet i am able to login with just the password . there is a better feature in python to telnet in to the modem does anyone know how to run a python script in VC++ 6.0
How to Integrate Python Script Into VC++.?
Look at either having Boost.Python, or SWIG. If this is plain C code, look at the manual. *Read the manual* as it tells you what to do to embed Python in C programs.
Reply:Use GCC... it has everything you will ever need...

How long does it take to become a Microsoft Certified Applications Developer??
I am a junior in college, and I am finding computer science boring because they don't really teach much about coding. I know C++ , but not how to make GUI's or use Microsoft Visual Studio, but I understand programming. How long to classes offered by trade schools to get a MCAD usually last? How much do they cost? What is covered in the classes, is it mostly hands on coding? ( stuff that isn't boring) Would it be difficult for me to do this if I went to one of the programs? Also is it possible to get a good job just having a MCAD and some college or do most people that are MCAD's also have CS degrees? Thanks

This is slightly off topic, but I have a few certifications in Java, that I earned without any "real world coding" experience immediately after I graduated with my B.S. in computer science, and the tests weren't too difficult. After graduating I was only proficient in C++, I had no course work in Java.
Here are the Java certification test I took:
Sun Certified Java programmer -- Passed in 7-10 days with no prior Java experience
Sun Certified Business Component Developer -- 10 weeks immediately after the Programmer cert, again I had no "real-world" experience.
Sun Certified Web Component -- It took 10 weeks but I was working full time.
Sun Certified Java Developer -- Took 3 years, but mostly because I kept putting it off, but was really like 60-80 hours of coding and planning.
I didn't take any courses. I just self learned with some text books (linked in my sources). The test cost between $150-$200 US dollars each. Could I get a job with only my certs and without a degree...maybe, but both degree and certs help land interviews for jobs. I would definitely finish your degree and if you really want to write code, perhaps you could work part time or do some coding on the side. There are some people that work as full time programmers with no degree and no certs.
I think the MCAD %26amp;MCSD test are either in C# or VB.NET, so you would have to learn one.

Unemployed WHY??
I ve completed a Bachelors Degreee in computer engineering from a good institute in PUNE.... UNIVERSITY
ive been looking fora JOB since july aint got 1
I am good in technical logic aptitude etc...........,
and skills like c,JAVA,java swing(gui design tools) and the works
still no jobs????
and indian IT is booming
MY ARZZZ IT IS.....???
Unemployed WHY??
It is always hard to land a first job, contact everyone you know to ask if the hear of any opening to let you know.
Also have someone else review your resume. If it is written like this post you won't get interviews for simple things like no space after commas and using the word aint with out even an apostrophe. A poorly written resume means you didn't care about quality, nobody wants a programmer who doesn't care about quality.
Reply:Try an employment agency that specifically specializes in IT placements. Take any position they place you at. After you have completed the assignment, get choosy.
Reply:It may be your interview skills.
It may be there is too much competition in your area for the same type job.
A degree doesn't get a job, a degree and experience usually account for more.
So, really practice and brush up on looking good, appearing competent and eager and buy a book on tough interview questions and see if you are failing any.
Call one of the companies back and ask if they could give you feedback on why you didn't get the job. Tell them you are wanting to learn from the experience.
Look beyond your comfort zone; are you trying for 1 type of job, or any that fit a certain criteria? expand your horizons a bit.
And, finally, it may be that there are too many of you there. Look for jobs with the government (e.g. jobsusa) with the military (as a civilian) too.
And maybe a different area might help.
Reply:Think about it, if YOU were an IT employer with a position to fill, and you had two equally qualified applicants, who would you give the job to? You? Or the equally qualified person with some job experience?
Go take ANY job for 6 months, and excel at it. Then try again...
Best wishes..
Reply:If you are good at it, go into consulting. Many companies pay top dollar for consultants who can get the job done fast without having to hire a ft employee. I did consulting before I landing an ft job. It paid the bills and kept up my chops.

Can anyone tell me a programming language?
I need a I need a programming language to learn because I already learned JAVA, BASIC and some part of C++
I got told that there is no GUI PROGRAMMING (Graphical User Interferce) in C++. Can anyone tell me a programming a programming language that can create windows without tiles and ICONS (icons on desktop). If C can do it, can you please tell me a course of C with the GUI PROGRAMMING?
Can anyone tell me a programming language?
That's garbage. Most GUI programming os done in C++, and you can do it in C as well. Learnabout the Qt toolkit from Trolltech and you should be OK.
Reply:Linux was written with Pure C.

1. Download and run firefox to protect your from future spyware attacks and pop ups which are coming in through Internet Explorer IE!! (Trojan downloaders, win32 ).
http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c...
2. Run the vundo and combo fix http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c...
3. Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c...
4. Run the anti spyware remove programs spybot http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c... and superantispyware http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c... to get rid of the nasties
5. Run a complete scan with free curing utility Dr.Web CureIt!
http://www.freedrweb.com/
Reply:Google the exact name of the virus as reported by your Av program for tips and tools to clean this out.
Reply:Your computer likely has a Vundo infection. Follow the link below to remove.
"The Vundo family of Trojans is one of the most common infections we find on user’s PC’s. The infection can cause popups which usually advertise rogue antispyware programs. Some common rogue antispyware programs that are advertised are WinFixer, SysProtect and Winantispyware for example. Users are normally targeted by false positives, and warning of infection – an example of this could be popups alerting users they are infected with a blackworm virus. The most common method of infection is through outdated versions of the Sun Java platform; older versions are being exploited so it is important to firstly make sure that your Java software is fully up to date. Thankfully, the infection is relatively easy to remove, and a specialised tool has been created to remove the vundo trojan from infected computers. The following guide will explain how to use the tool, and hopefully rid your system of this malware."

Reply:Google the exact name of the virus as reported by your Av program for tips and tools to clean this out.
Reply:Your computer likely has a Vundo infection. Follow the link below to remove.
"The Vundo family of Trojans is one of the most common infections we find on user’s PC’s. The infection can cause popups which usually advertise rogue antispyware programs. Some common rogue antispyware programs that are advertised are WinFixer, SysProtect and Winantispyware for example. Users are normally targeted by false positives, and warning of infection – an example of this could be popups alerting users they are infected with a blackworm virus. The most common method of infection is through outdated versions of the Sun Java platform; older versions are being exploited so it is important to firstly make sure that your Java software is fully up to date. Thankfully, the infection is relatively easy to remove, and a specialised tool has been created to remove the vundo trojan from infected computers. The following guide will explain how to use the tool, and hopefully rid your system of this malware."
