Is there something wrong with your computer?

Let's face it, while we would all love it if our computers would simply work the way they did when we bought them, that just isn't the case.

From run of the mill daily use to the more frightening prospect of virii, trojan horses, spyware, adaware and more, the once useful and productive computer is lucky to even boot up these days.

Computers get sick just like people do.

Today's Computers and the operating systems that run them are a paradox; in some ways they have become far more simple and are more reliable, but at the same time, when something goes wrong, they have become very difficult to troubleshoot.

Ten things (plus a few common sense ones) Windows XP users should do right now

I'm not interested in making your computer go faster. I don't care that it takes 46 seconds instead of 41 seconds from the time you hit the power button to the time you can run Doom3. And I'm not losing sleep at night if it doesn't look cool.

The things you find here are about making administering, maintaining or repairing windows easier or safer. If there are other benefits, so much the better.

You won't find a whole lot of utilities in here--there are enough favorite utilities features on the Internet (I even have my own). I'll try to stay away from those and focus on things that you can do with just the OS Bill Gates sold you.
