The advice offered at the Web site of 'Computer Therapy of PA' is strictly for those
knowledgeable in the subject matter presented. Under no circumstances will Philip
Orenstein, his partners, employees, relatives, or anyone associated with 'Computer
Therapy of PA' be held responsible for any errors in any of the advice presented, or
for any problems encountered by the software, hardware, or any other device,
drivers, settings, mishaps, etc., as a result of following our advice.
When our advice specifies a tweak or setting's change which involves modifying the
Windows Registry, a
**Warning** in red will precede the instruction to signify that you
may want to have a bottle of anti-perspirant on hand just in case. Even if you are sure
that you are up to the challenge beware that the Windows Registry is an unforgiving
beast. Make one blunder, and your Windows system could become corrupted,
requiring a complete reinstall. So please follow the instruction exactly as specified.
That means a lowercase letter is to be typed as a lowercase letter. And an
uppercase letter is to be typed as an uppercase letter. Also pay attention to when,
and when not, to insert a space. So heed the warning. Be careful.

Before you even think of making a change make sure you back up the Windows
Registry. Learn how to
back up the Windows 98 or Me Registry. Here's how to back
up the Windows 2000 Registry. And for Windows XP users, read how to back up the
Windows XP Registry.

It wouldn't hurt to back up your Windows operating system before delving into the
Windows Registry. Get instructions for backing up your Windows OS at Microsoft's
Knowledge Base article #KB999999.
