I then clicked OK,

I'm not so much of a "tech-enthusiast" as a "do-it-yourself" kind of guy. My OS is Windows Vista and I want to learn about what it takes to keep a computer running smoothly (i.e., what programs to trust/not trust, what to remove from/include on my computer, general information about what malware is and how it works, ect). Basically, I want to know what my biggest vulnerabilities are and where I can educate myself on them so I can do something about it instead of living off the mercy of sketchy forum reviews of the latest anti-whatever software.

I've tried learning by myself, but with the incredibly vast depth a
