Abstract: A computer system may encounter an error and receive information regarding the error and the user. The system may use information about the user to generate a message generation profile for the user. The system may use the message generation profile and the information about the error to generate a user-tailored message. The system may monitor the reaction of the user to an error message, and consider the information associated with the reaction when generating user-tailored error messages, subsequently.

Abstract: A computer receives information from a user, which includes the identity of and installation preferences for the software to be installed on a second computer. Information about the environment of the second computer is gathered by the computer. The computer defines a set of search parameters based on the information received and the environment of the second computer. The computer searches for data stored on storage devices and the Internet. The computer retrieves the data, associated to a second installation of the software on a third computer, which relates to the installation of software on the second computer. The computer generates guidance for installation of the software on the second computer, based on the identity of the software to be installed, installation preferences for the software to be installed, the environment of the second computer, and the data associated to an installation of the software on a third computer.
