a message: explorer has performed illegal operation and needs to be shut down, that there is a fault at 017f:00401f31 . this appers at the startup screen after i do or do not enter my network password and after it goes through the bootup screen. if i click close then the screen stays black and windows or anything will not continue to load. I think it has something to do with AOL 9.0 or maybe something to do with my internet. i cannot get to my desktop so i cannot run anyprograms we had spyseeper and norton antivirus on our computer and it did not find anything untill it just stopped working (windows 98) please help me if u can thanks

If you can get to the startup menu by holding down the control key after you start up the computer, pick the "start with a command prompt" which is C:>. Then type in "Scanreg /restore" without the quotation marks and make sure there's a space after the "g". Then pick a previous date from among those indicated which would have been before you downloaded a program that caused this error message.
