Yes, I have checked for viruses, run Disk Doctor, I am not getting any error reports when I run Norton,except that it wont let me run the Web Clean saying that IE is loaded. If its loaded, I sure cant tell by looking. I close everything before I run these checks. I have not installed or uninstalled anything recently. These errors have started cropping up for no apparent reason or rather I am not aware of any reason. A month ago things were fine. Inst. Msngr. cuts me off in mid sentence and I also get the Microsoft has encountered a problem and will shut down, sorry for the inconvenience. Im beginning to think its not me but MS. How can I tell if a prog. is running in the background?
