Enjoy the holiday season regardless of the holiday you may be celebrating.

Over the last 3 weeks, I've seen over 800 club member in various Computer Clubs throughout the Phoenix area.  I traveled as far north as Prescott, AZ and as far south as Tucson, AZ. I covered over 2500 miles during this "vacation". Thanks again Avast for making this all possible. December will find me in Florida. More details to follow.

MSCONFIG a treasure trove of System Utilities. You can reach msconfig in several ways: The easiest way is to use the Shortcut method: Use the Windows Key and the R key then type in msconfig in the window that opens: When msconfig opens, select the Tools tab: If you're using windows 8 / 8.1, you can even pin it to the task bar: Use the windows and the S key Type msconfig into the search box then right click on System Configuration and select Pin to Taskbar . Once this is done, all of these tools are just a click away.
