Recently the following undocumented error-codes were found. Microsoft
forgot to explain them in the manuals, so they will be spread via the
Internet:
WinErr: 001 Windows loaded - System in danger
WinErr: 002 No Error - Yet
WinErr: 003 Dynamic linking error - Your mistake is now in every file
WinErr: 004 Erroneous error - Nothing is wrong
WinErr: 005 Multitasking attempted - System confused
WinErr: 006 Malicious error - OS/2 found on drive
(particularly amusing if you know that Microsoft actually used to check
for the presence of Quarterdeck's memory manager, and would put up an error
message if it was in your CONFIG.SYS... The remedy was to rename the
program to another name, but it was still one of the first times people
really started to worry about M$.)
