18530 2001-09-10 00:03:00 i have a PII 350 with 13GB HD, 196 RAM, HP CD-Writer, running Windows SE. The last few days on startup I get a msg for Explorer saying it's caused an Illegal error and will be closed. I get these msg's when i try to start Nortons Anti Virus, CD writer, Explorer (when trying to copy files), Nortons Speed Disk, Word.
I can still open Outlook and send/receive emails ok.
Does this sound like a Virus has got into my system? Or something completely different? I'm unsure where to start in trying to work it out.

Appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks alot.

18531 2001-09-10 01:04:00 I have seen similar problems after someone installed Norton Utilities - the safe ??? program specifically. If the problem started just after a Norton Utility install then that might be the culprit. Guest (0)
