I am Slo1. I joined PC Forum in hopes og gaining insight and knowledge about the nuances of computers. As a novice I am seeking advice and guidance from members of PC Forum about my PC as issues arise. Bear with me as I need to familiarize myself with how to use this forum. I look forward to learning from each of you.

Hi welcome to the forum slo1

Hi there mate, enjoy your stay

Good Evening..

I am another Newbie to your list. I must say just browsing
through the site, is truly mind boggling to be sure !

There are many questions I wish to ask, but really
don't know where to begin?

I'm about to become a Senior in a few weeks
So I now am trying to adjust to this new
status along this journey of life.

My computer experience is somewhat
limited, as I've taught myself most of what I
know todate. I must admit I've picked a few
brains. I think in order to try and keep up
it will be an ongoing work in progress.

I'm presently using Windows XP SP 2
Home Edition along with IE7

I have a passion for Incredimail stationery,
Animations, Fonts... but still need to learn
how to do PSP and all that goes with it.

I have been having problems with constant
Error messages from Microsoft in regards
to the browser that is why I decided to
download IE7.
I run Ad-Aware, Spybot and have F-Secure
Security which includes a Firewall.

I decided to try Advanced Windows Care V2
to clean out some of the problems with
Errors especially in the Registry. It has been
helping, but my computer is still very slow.

Being on Disability doesn't allow me to go
out and purchase all the software packages
that people have suggested. So if anyone
has any tips or ideas I can try, it will be
most welcomed. Needless to say, I am
just a bit apprehensive about trying
unknown products....

Thank you so much for welcoming
even us Seniors who are late bloomers
with Computers.
Sunflowers
