During the first session on Saturday 26th we discussed a number of topics based on XP and Vista.
A discussion about the Microsoft Malicious Software removal tool proved interesting and to learn more about this software which almost certainly will be running on your computer visit the following site.
www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.aspx
There is also a link on this page to give a list of malware that will be detected and these may be selected to view the effects of each of these infections.
A means of understanding error codes was also discussed and these codes can be viewed at the websites shown below.
Error Codes 0 - 499 bit.ly/AE86G
Error Codes 5000 - 999 bit.ly/llwDs
Error Codes 1000 - 1299 bit.ly/MC7sb
Error Codes 1300 -1699 bit.ly/D78sq
Error Codes 1700 - 3999 bit.ly/j7vMW
Error Codes 4000 -5999 bit.ly/8XRuH
Error Codes 6000 -8199 bit.ly/6CytN

Error Codes 9000 - 11999 bit.ly/zJEMf

A look at the new short URL utility bit.ly was taken and demonstrated. If more information is required visit the bit.ly web site by simply typing in bit.ly in your search engine on the internet.
The second session was a group discussion on Windows 7 including proposed prices.
