If Windows hangs 1. Click on “ctrl-alt-delete” keys. The windows task manager will then open, click on all programs that you don’t need and end the task. You will see that all programs on your taskbar will close one by one. 2. If it did not resolve the issue, are there some users logged on that computer?

Windows Convert Command converting file system Windows XP supports two disk file systems: the file allocation table (FAT) file system and the NTFS file system. This article explains how to convert a FAT partition into an NTFS partition and discusses the considerations that you must take into account. Windows XP includes the Convert.exe utility for converting a FAT partition to an NTFS partition. Convert.exe is simple to use, but there are some limitations that you should consider before using the utility.MORE INFORMATION You should consider the following limitations before you convert a FAT partition to NTFS: • The conversion is a one-way process. After you convert a partition to NTFS, you cannot convert the partition back to FAT. To restore the partition as a FAT partition, the partition would have to be reformatted as FAT, which erases all data from the partition. Data would then be restored from backup. • Removing Windows XP to revert to Windows 98 or to Windows Millennium Edition
What are Worms and Viruses worm vs virus VIRUS It is a program designed to change the way your computer operates without your permission or knowledge. When a virus attaches itself to another file, it infects it. Any time you activate an infected file it can damage files, cause erratic system behavior, or display messages. Some system viruses are programmed specifically to corrupt programs, delete files, or erase your disk. Viruses are inactive until you run an infected program, start your computer from a disk with infected system files, or open an infected file. Once a virus is active in memory it can infect any other programs, local or network, that you run. Files infected with a virus can be inoculated (the virus is removed from the program). WORM Worms are a close cousin to viruses and Trojan Horses. Unlike a virus they don't infect other programs. They do however make many copies of themselves in memory, which effectively consumes all your memory. This leaves no memory to run

Resolve "Could not access 'CDO.Message' object" error There could be few reasons for this error you can try suggestion sprovided below Workaround 1 The email address does not have a valid TO address. After iterating through the InnerExceptions, you may find this error message actually has to do with relaying. Try sending a test email to an email address that exists on the server specified by SmtpMail.SmtpServer. If you can send an email to that server, then it is a relay issue. Talk to your mail server administrator about letting your code relay through the mail server. Workaround 2 Use a real FROM address that exists on the SmtpMail.SmtpServer. Do not use something like "asdf@asdf.com", or some other bogus address as your MailMessage.FromProperty. More advanced mail servers will catch this, and will deny relaying.
