Guides and Manuals

I don't know if someone ever wonder about this, but being in South America, with quite average grades in the University, and don't have much money, make me wonder this. Where could someone find guides or manuals, to learn how to use graphic programs, like Flash, Fireworks, Corel and Adobe Photoshop? I always wanted to learn how to use this programs step-by-step, can someone tell me?

SMTP Authentication

I entered the CPanel and i checked the email account i just created in the Outlook option, it said that the Outgoing mail server (SMTP), need authentication, How can i do that? Can you help me, please?

Help please!

Well, i received the emails with the specs of my account, but i'm trying to access the CPanel, but each time i try to enter the URL that is added in the email, it can't, it appears the typical error...



So, i wanted to know why i can't enter in the page... is there an error with the Control Panels or something?

Update

Well, i wanted to know... let's say that i have the hosting, but... i gain more posts and i want to upgrade my hosting plan, so... the Instant Hosting Activation can be used for this? or i have to contact an administrator, as the only way to upgrade the plan?

Question about hosting

I posted this before, and i don't know if i didn't make myself clear asking this, or if i make the wrong question... but, i used phpBB before and i wanted to know if the email accounts could be used to send the verification emails to the users... that happened to me before with another hosting.

Can you answer me this? I would aprecciate it.
