Everytime I open Internet Explorer or Notepad it comes up with '... has encountered a problem' ?? The starge thing is that the title for the windows displaying the message says 'FOS.0.1' and at the bottom in the task bar it says 'FOS.0.1_iexplore.exe' or 'FOS.0.1_notepad.exe'. Does any one know whats ging on. My anti-virus is updated fully and I did a scan and theres nothing...?

Never heard of the FOS.0.1 deal, but what you describe sounds like EXE associations are messed up. Check under a start/run/cmd window, use the following: run 'assoc.exe', make sure that .exe=exefile then run 'ftype exefile' make sure that exefile="%1 %*" So ur output should look like: C:\>assoc.exe .exe=exefile C:\>ftype exefile exefile="%1 %*" If ftype is wrong then use: ftype exefile="%1 %*" If no luck, then check under the 'Has encountered a problem' screen, where is says 'Click here to see what information this error...', locate the 'ModName' & search on that too Also see what happens if you launch via start / run / iexplore

Hey I got the same thing... I think its a virus. I got this email with some new anti-virus software and then i tried installing it and then the error messages started. I did the CMD thing and its fine. And the modname is 'Unknown'??
