WHOIS – Search-Domain Name-Website-IP Tools

WHOIS is a query and response protocol that is widely used for querying databases that store the registered users or assignees of an Internet resource, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system, but is also used for a wider range of other information. The protocol stores and delivers database content in a human-readable format.

WHOIS information has to be made publicly available to everyone via the public WHOIS database as required by ICANN, the international governing body for domain names and Everyday, this valuable source of accurate contact information is targeted and harvested by spammers and telemarketers resulting in unwanted and unsolicited contact. Also since your contact information is public, you are at risk for identity theft and fraud and of being contacted by harassers and stalkers. Privacy Protection ensures that your private information is not published by replacing all your publicly visible contact details with alternate contact information.

FEATURES:

1. See Website Information

Move the ost-file

I’m running out of disk space on my main drive and noticed that my ost-file was really big. I know how to move pst-files, but that method does not seem to apply to ost-files.

How can I move my ost-file to another location?

Moving an ost-file to another location is indeed a bit more trickier than moving an pst-file. While it is recommended to leave the ost-file in its default location, there are still valid reasons for moving it to another location like for instance when using a smaller Solid-state Drive (SSD) as your main disk.

  1. Close Outlook.
  2. Copy the ost-file to the location where you want it to go.
    The defaults location for the ost-file is;

    • Windows Vista and Windows 7
      C:Users%username%AppDataLocalMicrosoftOutlook
    • Windows XP
      C:Documents and Settings%username%Local SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftOutlook
  3. Use the Mail applet in Control Panel to open your E-mail Account settings.
  4. Double click on the Exchange server account and choose More Settings…
  5. Select the Advanced tab.
  6. Disable the option; Use Cached Exchange Mode.
  7. Press Apply.
  8. Press the button; Offline Folders File Settings…
  9. Press the button; Disable Offline Use
  10. Press OK on the warning dialog that pops-up.
  11. Press again on the button; Offline Folders File Settings…
  12. Now browse to the new location of the ost-file.
  13. Press OK to return to the Advanced tab.
  14. Enable the option again for Use Cached Exchange Mode.
  15. Close all open dialogs and rename the ost-file in the old location from .ost to .old
  16. Start Outlook.

Outlook will now use the ost-file from the new location and you can safely delete the ost-file from your main disk.

Offline Folder File Settings
It takes some clicking to make the ost-file location field editable.

Note: Don’t place the ost-file on a network share. This is unsupported and it would defeat the purpose of enabling Cached Exchange Mode. The ost-file should reside on an internal drive.
