A friend of me is looking for the typical internet guide for begineers, dummies and the alikes… all I was able to find was kinda outdated, anyway he is looking for answers to questions like "what is a domain…?", that kind of stuff.

I have found this one, but could be kinda outdated… it says something like "the average home modem, which has a top speed of roughly 9,600 to 14,400 bits per second" …

Would be nice if he could download the guide as a single archive.

From time to time, you will likely see messages on the Net that you want to save for later viewing -- a recipe, a particularly witty remark, something you want to write your congressman about, whatever. This is where screen capturing and logging come in.

When you tell your communications software to capture a screen, it opens a file in your computer (usually in the same directory or folder used by the software) and "dumps" an image of whatever happens to be on your screen at the time.

Logging works a bit differently. When you issue a logging command, you tell the software to open a file (again, usually in the same directory or folder as used by the software) and then give it a name. Then, until you turn off the logging command, everything that scrolls on your screen is copied into that file, sort of like recording on videotape. This is useful for capturing long documents that scroll for several pages -- using screen capture, you would have to repeat the same command for each new screen.
