FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
Plug-ins
Plug-ins are set of software components that adds specific capabilities to a larger software application. Plug-ins enable customizing the functionality of an application, if supported. They are commonly used in web browsers to play video, scan for viruses, and display new file types. Adobe Flash Player and QuickTime are examples of well-known plug-ins.
Filters
A filter is a program that accepts a certain type of data as input, transforms it in some manner, and then outputs the transformed data. For instance, a program that sorts names is a filter because it accepts the names in unsorted order, sorts them, and then outputs the sorted names. Filters are sometimes known as utilities that allow you to import or export data.
Internet Security Suite
Security Suite tries to warn you about all the nasty things that apparently infected your PC and is stealing your data. Or Windows might start recommending it out of blue because they can't handle these parasites on its own. And suddenly all your programs get infected too, including antivirus you had before. So be protective of your PC before it is too late!
Wiki
Wiki is a website designed to permit the development of information resources by creating hyperlinked webpages using software that accessed through a web browser. They are usually collaborative, unlike most blogs, and may be found in a wide range of settings. The best known wiki is the online Wikipedia.
Javascripts
Javascript is a popular scripting language in Web browsers and other Web tools that is widely supported. Since HTML is a display language, it adds interactive functions to HTML pages, which are otherwise static. JavaScript is not as powerful and deals mainly with the elements on the Web page but it is easier to use than Java. On the client, JavaScript is maintained as source code embedded into an HTML page. Meanwhile, it is compiled into bytecode (intermediate language), similar to Java programs on the server.
Applets
It is a program written in the Java programming language that can be included in an HTML page, much in the same way an image is included in a page. The applet's code is transferred to your system and executed by the browser's Java Virtual Machine (JVM) when you use a Java technology-enabled browser to view a page that contains an applet .
URL is an address of a resource on the Internet. It can be any type of file stored on a server, such as a Web page, a text file, a graphics file, or an application program. It contains three elements: the type of protocol used to access the file (e.g., HTTP for a Web page, ftp for an FTP site); the domain name or IP address of the server where the file resides; and, optionally, the pathname to the file (i.e., description of the file's location). For example, the URL http://www.venezia.com/flower instructs the browser to use the HTTP protocol, go to the http://www.venezia.com/ Web server, and access the file named flower.
It is an internet protocol that allows a computer to send files to or receive files from another computer. FTP works by means of a client-server architecture; the user runs client software to connect to a server on the Internet, like many internet resources. A program which allows the user to download and upload files on the FTP server is called a daemon . FTP was one of the most popular methods of exchanging information over the Internet before the World Wide Web was introduced and many Web sites still use it to disseminate their larger files.

HTML
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the document format used on the Web. Web pages are built with codes embedded in the text, which are HTML tags. The page layout, fonts and hypertext links to other documents on the Web are defined by the tags. Each link contains the URL (the address) of a Web page residing on the same server or any server worldwide, hence "World Wide Web." The graphic elements used on the page are also defined by the HTML, which are separate files on a local or remote server.
