osa.exe & not enough memory

Recently, I have been getting an error about not having enough memory to open the C:\program files \ Microsoft Office \ Office \ OSA.exe file at start up. I haven't installed any new programs recently, I am running Windows 98 and Microsoft Office 2000, I have 128 Meg of RAM and windows automatically determines the size of my virtual memory so I don't know how it could be an actual memory problem. The shortcut for "Office Startup" in my start up menu points to this application, but I don't know if this is a necessary file in the start menu since I don't have Microsoft office automatically start when I boot. Can anyone help me with this or has anyone else had a similar problem? Thanks a lot!

Run a scandisk and choose thorough scan and fix all error automatically should be checked then run a defragment on your drive.

Are you install the fast start up office? if is this case you can delete the shortcut in the start up menu into programs.

i got this virus at c:/program files/Microsoft Office/ Office/OSA.EXE
it sais the file has been changed, and that the program contains a Ms-Windows or os/2 exe. header ...
last but not least, i cant erase the file so as to get rid of the virus because it sais its being used at the moment, which i dont think its true.
well then id be grateful if you could tell me WHAT to do, as I am very worried and need my pc in conditions as soon as possible.

thanks, in advance, for any answer i receive to deal with this.
