Active Server Pages is a scripting environment used to create and run dynamic, interactive Web server applications. It lets Web developers combine HTML pages, script commands and other components to create interactive Web pages or powerful Web-based applications that are easy to develop and modify.
Common Gateway Interface (CGI) is a set of rules that describes how a Web server communicates with another piece of software operating outside the server. A CGI program is usually a small program that makes it possible for HTTP servers to interface with computer programs to provide interactive functions, such as filling out online forms and turning data into a database query.
Used for editing zone files for your domain, commonly used when you have an internal server you need directed to. Such as, Exchange Servers, Internal FTP, VPN's, etc
DNS is an acronym for Domain Name System (or Service or Server). This is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Anytime you use a domain name in a Web browser (such as Internet Explorer), a DNS service must translate the domain name into the corresponding IP address. For example: The domain name www.abc.com might translate to 166.102.1.10.
Data Source Names are names given to every group of indexed or relative data files that a Windows application needs to access. A meaningful name should be assigned to the data files — one that represents the type of data that the files contain, or the type of query that will be made against the files.

The amount of space available for storing data in memory, designated in bytes.
With email, you can send messages to other people via computer networks. And with Windstream's IMAP business email, users can access their email through their desktop computer at home, a workstation at the office, and a PDA while traveling - all without the need to transfer messages or files back and forth between computers.
FrontPage is a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) Web page editor by Microsoft. In order to use FrontPage to create and maintain your Web site, your hosting service must install "extensions" (CGI programs that provide the server side implementation of FrontPage).
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is an Internet protocol that allows users to transfer files to and from other computers. FTP is commonly used to download programs and other files to your computer from other servers. It's also used to transfer Web page files.
MySQL is the world's most popular database management system, designed for speed, power and precision in mission-critical, heavy load use. Its connectivity, speed, customizability and security make MySQL highly suited for accessing databases on the Internet.
Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) is a widely used, general purpose scripting language that's especially suited for Web development. It can be used on all major operating systems to collect data from online forms, generate dynamic page content, or send and receive cookies.
Raw Log Access is access to actual raw data files used to log Web site activity, kept on the server in their original format.
