Hi Bob,

I would serious suggest that you check your PC for virus's. don't rely on the one that comes with windows. Use Mc Afees or invercible ot f-prot. every time windows has come up with this for me, the computer has been affected by a virus. Either you have a pc hard disk that can't be used with 32bit disk access , or you got a virus. as you have guessed i favour the latter
