To some Windows XP users, the error reporting is a really disturbing features.
However, this feature does not only disturb you, but also give Microsoft some information of some part of your data.

For example, if you are running spredsheet for example Excel, suddenly it crashes, some part of the file will also be included with error reporting and ready to be sent ro microsoft.

Imagine that you are running your business in Windows XP and you mistakenly hit report your error. I dont wanna say anything about that, but you are telling them about your company expenses, your company standings and so.

Here is the way to disable this:

go to control panel and select system.
select the "advanced" tab
and find button "error reporting" at the bottom of the page
and select disable error reporting.
you are set.
