Wierd/funny error messages ...

I arrived at the office today, turned on my PC which tells me that the system needs to be restarted for the updates it had downloaded (while I was sleeping !!) to take effect. I felt good for my PC was working even while I was not ;-) . I restarted my machine and was trying to sign in to my MSN messenger and I got this error message:
The messages reads - "We could not sign you in to Windows Live Messenger because Internet Explorer is currently set to work offline ...blah blah blah".

For a sec, the techy in me went wondering - "Why should my messenger not let me sign in due to some setting in my IE !!" - Well, Microsoft is famous for such error messages, let me not blame my co-developers @ Microsoft :-)

Leaving the technical details apart, I found an interesting link where the author had compiled a bunch of funny MS error messages - http://zoocow.com/jokes/funny-windows-error-messages/187/

Some of the error messages that I liked from the url above:

• BREAKFAST.SYS halted… Cereal port not responding.
• Bad command or file name! Go stand in the corner.
• Bad or missing mouse. Spank the cat? (Y/N)
• Enter any 11-digit prime number to continue.
• Error reading FAT record. Try SKINNY one? (Y/N)
• File not found. Should I fake it? (Y/N)
• Invalid mouse movement.
• Press any key except… No, No, No, NOT THAT ONE!
• User Error: Replace User.

And the funniest :

• Windows VirusScan 1.0 - “Windows found: Remove it? (Y/N)”

There are some real funny screenshots too, over there, go check them out :-)

Happy troubleshooting ;-)
