Ok guys & gals, I'm have one hell of a time getting into any & darn near all programs, even now, I just downloaded everest from the net to my desktop But I can't run the install, When I try to opem a program such as outlook express, I keep getting the following error message,( Windows can not find 'C:/program files\outlook express\msins\exe'. ) the same one I'm getting for everything else, such as windows explorer, system restore, My computer properties, or anything. So I can't even get into anything to try & repair this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Maxx

maxx, SWAG, sounds like the work of a nasty to me. Be sure your machine's clean. If that's the deal, you may need to correct the altered addy to fix. Could be altered addy, could be moved file. HTH. Ed in Texas.
