Alas, Ian "Gizmo" Richards' "Support Alert" is no longer with 'Windows Secrets'. He's back at 'techsupportalert'.

I've been using ComputerHope(com) recently to diagnose computer problems. This site has "everything" related to diagnosis and repair for newbies/non-geeks. From their log analyzing tool to on-site info to make repairs (or direct links to mfg's site for updates, etc). Great resources incl. an excellent dictionary for every PC term (incl "slang") in easy to understand definition. I almost cried when I found this site.

I tried to visit your friend Allen Wyatt's page but his color scheme on both his pages killed my eyes. Was it just me or are the colors a little difficult.

I don't see a problem with it, but you didn't indicate what colors you see. Seems ok to me.

I'm glad to see Kim Kommando listed. I've been a member of Kim's Club for a few years and have gotten a lot of help from other members.
I also get a lot of help from Ask Leo, Thanks Leo.

Annoyances.org is a good quick-hit site for a database of common Windows-based problems, sorted by version number.

P.S. Don't forget PC Pitstop.

It is actually a kind of composite of several of these, (including you,) and is great for an overview.

More people should check it out, too.

I was really glad to see this list and realize that I subscribe to every one of these.

I have recently tried to unsubscribe from the enormous amount of ZDNet alerts that I was receiving EVERY SINGLE DAY, but I want to keep their Downloads Digest.

However, it is only fair to point out that I consider Ask Leo to to be the BEST OF THE BUNCH, no two ways about it!!!

Keep up the great work!!!

I subscribe to CNet which sends out lists of new products, that are updated frequently ... and readers' participation and advice on common Windows products ... I found a free program to do many system tasks - Advanced System care, Their Forum has a new question every week to solve problems ... it does surveys on their offered products and you can find a missing driver or an update ..

You get to test updates to the programs

overall i would rate this site as an 8 out of 10 ... because it also includes stuff most of us are not interested in ... such as Wallpaper screen pictures and walpaper changers ...

To the best of my knowledge, I have had no viruses/spyware/spam coming from their website.

They do include a number of products which they offer to as sale items.

I'm really, really surprised that the Nerdy Buffalo newsletter (which is a Yahoo Groups newsletter) didn't come in near the top! This is a group I absolutely rely upon, and the first one I go to, when I have a hardware or software issue, or when I just plain don't understand something. Members are encouraged to help answer each others' questions, and they do with great enthusiasm and knowledge. There is an extensive searchable archive of articles going back to 2003. The newsletter comes out daily, but the owner is currently undergoing cancer treatment, so a couple of issues are missing here and there, but not very many.

@K.Hughes: LOL -- I wish you'd have sent the entire quote:

I just went to his site -- and that's some glowing endorsement. Best $100 I ever spent. [kidding and ducking].

Kim Kommando has some great unique stuff but be prepared to receive 4-5 emails from her a day (I guess she needs to earn a living)

Hi Leo, I am not a computer guru, but I would also like to mention Protonic,s website they mail a news letter occasionally, and they have some very knowledgeable technicians that provide fast, friendly and free service to any problem you might encounter with your computer!

Surprised that DavesComputerTips news letters didn't rate a mention. They are the best, way better than Windows Secrets.

Dave's news letters include; computer tips & advice, security news & advice, freeware reviews, intro to new freeware, digital photography help & advice, tips and tricks for all MS Office components plus more. It's excellent value for free.

JIM

For the record, it was mentioned - just not often enough to make the top 5.

I subscribed to most of the newsletters mentioned. I got a query back from Steve Bass asking where i heard about his newsletter. I sent a link to this article. Here is his reply:
{snip}
Thanks, Ron. That's some glowing endorsement. Best $100 I ever spent. {/snip}

Hey Leo, if all you got was $100 (grin) I have a bridge you might be interested in.

I too was pleased to see that I was already subscribed to a few of your reader's top picks.

I'm actually not sure what $100 he might be referring to (perhaps he advertised with me at some point, but that would be so long ago that I've clearly forgotten about it.) The Top 5 results in article above were 100% the result of the votes of my newsletter readers. :-)

The best computer forum in Australia is www.whirlpool.net.au. Covers all aspects of computers inc networking, hardware, software VoIP, internet etc. Aimed at the Australian computer environment, but would be useful for all computer users.

Protonic.com has been an absolute lifesaver for me. Unlike many "forums", you don't have to sift through the opinions of several "techs". ONE of many techs will take your question & keep e-mailing back & forth til your problem is solved. It is free but asks for a rating of each tech and will certainly appreciate donations. It is a very well run site. Also they keep a record of what equipment you are using so you don't have to input all that every time you ask a question. Very user friendly.

onlinesubscriptionscomputoredge.com (replace the with @) I have been reading this publication since about 2000 when I was in school for my AA in Network Enginnering. Back then it was on paper. Great resource for parts and articles. Many of the articles are aimed at current working Professionals but there are many articles that will appeal to the layman as well.
