Finally, I got it managed to move my domain to a different hosting provider. I was looking for an affordable while spacious provider for quite some time. But either they did not offer a windows hosting package or the amount of space was just too small. I hosted my site at Globat before and really have to say that I was very satisfied with their service and the whole package they provide. The only reason I was looking for a new provider was because of the type of hosting. Globat does not offer a windows package and therefore I was not able to do all the programming in ASP.NET which is by far my favorite language when it comes to web applications. ...

Background: Winsock LSPs and why they break ASP.NET In 2007 it was very common for laptops to ship with mobile broadband software — UMTS / HSDPA dongles or built-in 3G modems came with bundled connection managers from Vodafone, T-Mobile, Sony Ericsson, and others.

One thing that quite frequently happened to me: I worked with MS SQL Server Reporting Services for quite a while, due to some reason (that I cannot assign right now) while accessing the ReportManager I get the following error message “Failed to decrypt symmetric key”. The suggestion now is to run RsKeyMgmt to delete all encrypted content and to run RsConfig to re-generate a new key.

I googled for solutions but just couldn’t find anything. The only way to get RS back to work was to reinstall it. This happened quite a few times to me until I found this post (original link: https://www.developmentnow.com/g/115_2005_1_0_0_454625/rskeymgmt-gives-no-response.htm) from Brian Welcker. So, the simple solution to this is to type in Y instead.
