but each time I reboot, I get the following message. *Stmgr has caused an error in Wintrust.dll. Program will now close. If problem persists, please restart your computer

Strmgr is a component of System Restore, and Wintrust is a component which creates and checks hash values and thus determines if a file has been modified or replaced. It could be that you performed an update on Windows ME and something got messed up. One thing that may need to be done is to register this DLL in your registry. You can do this through the use of the Regsvr32 command. Go to the Start Menu / Run and type "Command" to get your command prompt window. Then change directory to your "c:\Windows\System" directory and then run the following command:

Regsvr32 wintrust.dll

Then reboot. I honestly don't know if this will fix your problem, but it is worth a try. Other than that, you may want to look at trying the latest updates from Microsoft to see if they fixed it. But, here's the catch-all solution - upgrade. Windows ME is problematic and I suggest Windows 2000 or XP.
