What is Google Public DNS?
Google Public DNS is a free, global Domain Name System (DNS) resolution service, that you can use as an alternative to your current DNS provider.
To try it out:
* Configure your network settings to use the IP addresses 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as your DNS servers or
* Read our configuration instructions.
If you decide to try Google Public DNS, your client programs will perform all DNS lookups using Google Public DNS.
Why does DNS matter?
The DNS protocol is an important part of the web’s infrastructure, serving as the Internet’s phone book: every time you visit a website, your computer performs a DNS lookup. Complex pages often require multiple DNS lookups before they start loading, so your computer may be performing hundreds of lookups a day.
Why should you try Google Public DNS?
By using Google Public DNS you can:
* Speed up your browsing experience.
* Improve your security.
* Get the results you expect with absolutely no redirection.

Yet Another Smooth Scrolling
If you want to remove the Google Ads that CRE Loaded adds to the footer, and ahem.. hides them so well.. edit this file:
/includes/javascript/cart_links.js.php
Comment out or delete the last four lines before the end php tag (?>). I won’t write out the entire code, as my blogging software (WordPress) is a little funky with the code I wanted to paste.
Comment out the lines (pseudo-code):
//echo 'table...'
//echo ‘td…’
//echo include(’http://creloaded.com/cre_google.js’);
//echo ‘/td
You’ll see the include statement getting the Google Ads from creloaded.com.
Better yet! Get your own Google Ads on there.
If you do it right, you can integrate the ads well enough so it looks to be in place.

Here is the fix:
In includes/classes/cc_validation.php find this (2 occurences):
| Code: |
$this->cc_type = 'Amex'; |
and replace with:
| Code: |
//$this->cc_type = 'Amex';
$this->cc_type = 'American Express'; |
The site should be much faster now.
So far so good. The backend of Wordpress is much faster then MT since you don’t have to rebuild the site everytime…
