Please kindly check if it is Pakistan, because here... Everything is blocked!
We can't use YouTube, we can't use any of our blog services that we can use to spread our voice, we can't do anything at all... So, I thought you might be in premises of Pakistan (as per your descriptions). I guess, politicians (mainly the ministers in the telecommunication authorities) believe that cutting down the resources would help them in keeping their nocturnal events going on...
See what they did, they tried to stop us... Instead, they actually helped us to praise the power of a VPN, power of social media and it helped us see what reality is... Everyone around is corrupt and wants to keep nation in dark.
Sorry for going off-track and not talking about TOR at all -- I have never used it.

I am NOT saying Sri Lanka and India are blocking, I am saying the opposite, they are conduits or drop off points if you are using a TOR browser to obscure point of origin.
The TOR browser facilitates accesses that your country is trying to block by obscuring point of origin and even the ports that are traditionally used for https. No VPN is necessary.
My premise is the TOR browser is being used here in the states to get around a perceived increasingly spying government. That being the case, instead of blocking TOR it should be embraced as more of the people using TOR are US locals and the ads being displayed may be local to them even though the access may appear to come form some place like Sri Lanka.

...on the other hand, TOR is a NRL USA invention just as the internet was a DARPA invention, take your chances as to who is doing what to who.

So I decided to move my free WordPress account to my own domain.
Luckily WordPress has an export/import functionality. Wow, biggest piece of crap ever.
It exports alright, but just my posts, tags, etc. I get everything in an XML that I can import on my new site.
So here's the problem. Everything else is gone (styles, stats, etc.).
That sucks, but I can actually live with that (but why not just export that too?).
What bugs me more is that my posts could be found under freeaccount.wordpress.com/yyyy/MM/dd/mypost/, but on my new site it changed that to mydomain.com/first_category_of_post/mypost/.
I upload all my blogs to CodeProject, so that's the category it finds first... 
It seems I'll be spending a couple of hours getting everything back to how it was. And then some months to get my stats back.
Why does this have to be so hard...?

I had enough to do as it was... Homework, book review, birthday of my niece, but I still decided to move my WordPress (had to do it sometime). "Move your WordPress" they said, "It will be easy" they said...

Sander I am not a yoga-guy! But I would like to say, when ever you get into such trouble... Try to stay calm. Hold your anger and maintain your mood. I have used wordpress online only. Because, I don't like PHP and wordpress is giving me another reason to not use PHP ever; I was wondering to learn PHP to use wordpress.
Anyhow, as being a developer, if I don't find a feature. I would create it. From fellows who use wordpress, I have heard that wordpress does allow editing your templates (after purchasing I guess) and adding plugins and so. So, why not create one? I have no idea of actual wordpress, so I might be wrong.
Then, always remember to press CTRL + C, after every successful paragraph; in case of anything going wrong.

It does, I had some (pre-made) styles on my current blog, but it doesn't get exported to my new one, so I had to get that pre-made style again and do some customizations etc. My new site looks very different from the old one now.

Well, it seems you press these buttons very calmly and with a great regularity.
A very typical problem with blog holders.

I think I got it almost set up now. Just need to change a few links here and there to point to my new website

My wordpress (WP) site got hacked by a malware PHP and then it really bugged me that WP is all PHP and it is so complicated to do simple things at times.
I recently began work on creating blog pages which are run by MVC / Web API. Yes, it makes me have to do more work in the beginning to create the blog, but then I'll have a CMS (content mgment system) which I can actually manage myself instead of investing so many hours in understanding how WP works.
I just kind of hate WP now.

I don't need PHP to blog. I can install WP and just get to blogging. I have enough to do as it is, and creating my own CMS is not on that to do list.
Sounds fun to make, but at this point I'm really just interested in writing my blogs

I don't think I could've used any of those on my free WordPress.com account since it didn't enable me to install plugins, one of the reasons I switched to a self-hosted WordPress.

I have a problem with IE failing to display an image under the most bizarre circumstances.
I have posted a question in Q&A but felt the puzzle of it all deserved a wider audience - hence I'm posting a link to my Q&A Question here
What is wrong with the VERY simple html?[^]
in the question is a link to the files I downloaded, and an explanation as to the problem.
This isn't something I need to be fixed - but I am just really curious as to what the cause is!
Kudos to the person who finds the problem!

It took me some time to find Notepad...
I can't see no problem in my end...
I done this:
1. downloaded and extracted you page...
2. downloaded a new image from the web (directly into the images folder, using IE, so blocking is active)
3. edited image name in Notepad
4. refreshed the page
All work well - I can see the new image...
Did you used F12 to see if you have any hidden messages?

I don't understand this phrase?
This is strange! Can you let me know the URL of the image it worked with, so I can try it with the same image, just in case?
Yes - I've used F12 and nothing of any interest is there!

When you uploaded the image via your FTP client did you ensure that the ASCII option was not checked?
I ask this because I have spent the past three hours trying to figure out why images I was uploading were not displaying correctly, then I discovered by chance that FTP surfer had, under the Tools menu, the ASCII option checked.
