Terri gets the dreaded Windows Blue Screen
Recently I have had several problems, that, fortunately, I have been able to fix using Reimage. (Thank you for that recommendation!) Two days ago we had a "blue screen crash". We have NEVER had anything like this and I was wondering if this is an indication of more trouble to come and if we need to consider a new computer.

I am a complete novice with computers, but have managed to fly by the seat of my pants, thanks to you. I read your newsletter every week and try to keep things in order with your help. We have had McAfee for years and just in this past year, have become disenchanted with them, for not catching viruses. Is Microsoft Security Essentials better? Do you even recommend it? Your help is greatly appreciated.

A comment from John
Hi TC and EB. Excuse me for butting in to your busy day. I have to tell you , to use an Aussie term, you are better than 'sliced bread'. (a compliment) You continuously offer good products, information and advice to us 'computerites' who otherwise would be fumbling in the dark and losing sleep over Internet security, programme malfunction, crashes and other issues which would take 'forever' to otherwise resolve. After reading this weeks InfoAve Premium, I purchased and installed Registry Commander. After running the programme, there were 765 errors indicated, and 3 tweaks installed. The day before, I ran my weekly check with Registry Mechanic, which indicated only 35 errors. To use someone else's terminology, "Every day, someone makes a better 'mouse-trap'. Thank you for all the good work over the years in keeping computers healthy, and users much more wise and safe. Yours faithfully, John in Oz.t of techies blogging about registry cleaners/optimizers - many of them saying that they don't work or provide only minimal system improvements. One of the most common reasons they cite for why you don't need a registry cleaner/optimizer is that Windows ignores the orphans and junk in your registry and only uses the good stuff. Well, that's true. But while it's true it also leaves out a very important element: time. The more junk you allow to accumulate in your registry, the more junk Windows has to sort through to get to the things it needs. The more time Windows spends sorting through the trash to find the things it needs, the slower your computer becomes. And at first it may not even be noticeable - computers are very fast. But allowed to build up over months and months, you will notice a slight lag here and there - a bit of hesitation - slower shutdowns, slower start ups.

This week's Rant

February

"...To those of us who knew the pain
Of valentines that never came
And those whose names were never called
When choosing sides for basketball
It was long ago and far away
The world was younger than today
And dreams were all they gave for free
To ugly duckling (guys) like me..."
(Janis Ian "At Seventeen")

To me, February is the worst month of the year.

Though February is the shortest month, it seems like the longest month. February this year, like most years, has twenty-eight days. By the time it is over, it will seem like sixty-two days; at least to those of us who live in the Midwestern United States. Here spring begins on March 21st, according to the calendar, but it doesn't really begin until sometime in late April.

February is a cruel. cold month. It is the mean, odious step-mother of months. It leads us into March - when spring is supposed to begin. But, March is nothing if not a big tease. The calendar says spring begins on March 21. But spring does not begin in March. At least it does not begin in March in my little town.
