    ~oldcomptrguy What does GM have to do with M$?!? If GM cars were built like M$ Windoze 9X series, when you bought the car you would learn the true meaning of a "crash" when the axle cracks and a wheel flies off as you drive it off the lot. After this, the service department tells...

    Problem of viewing windows in I.E 6

    It could be a popup blocker app you are running or check your internet options in the control panel or from the IE menu and on the security tab click the custom button. In those options, make sure you got scripting enabled.

    Something is loading along with IE6

    Also check win.ini under [windows] for 'load=' and make sure system.ini under [boot] 'shell=explorer.exe' or matches some other kind of shell replacement if you have one. Also check autoexec.bat, config.sys, winstart.bat, see if anything strange being loaded in these.

    outlook express dump

    I recently noticed on a machine that occasionally a file will show up in the root directory named simply "~" and appears to be a bin WAB dump of some sort. Has anyone else noticed this or is it perhaps the by-product of some worm?

    ERROR MESSAGE " WINLOGON '-

    can't login to windows to have permissions to install software? should be cured by adding del /y c:\windows\*.pwl to your autoexec.bat - make sure after you reboot that you remove it and naturally the user accounts will need to be recreated.

    Error Messages

    I think you mean MSHTML.DLL? First try to do a FIXIE. Run MSINFO32 -> Tools -> Repair Internet Explorer Select Repair, OK. After it is finished, OK to reboot. If it still occurs, there may be some spyware on the machine. Please post back.

    Using USB Ports Causing Win 98 To Hang

    Run msinfo32 - Under Hardware Resources click on IRQs and see if any conflict. Otherwise you may want to look into your twain drivers and see if maybe corrupt or out of date.
