so today i as i usually do around this time, checked my event viewer to see that i had an error (:o), i tried google at first but didnt find anything usable, i did stumble upon 1 thread where someone had virus cus of it.

so i scanned in safemode but found nothing ( booting to safe mode gave me around 70 errors in event viewer) (hate that)

it says as following  

There was an error with the Windows Location Provider database

In all honesty, if you haven't noticed any errors with the actual day to day usage of the computer, you can ignore it. Windows will throw up hundreds of thousands of errors in it's lifetime in the background, 99.99% of which are pointless and meaningless to normal activities. If you notice an issue or the computer behaving oddly, then you can investigate the event viewer, otherwise, best to plead ignorance :)
