We are using Windows 98 / Internet Explorer / Outlook Express. Just recently we have noticed freezing up on desk top, outlook express, playing solitaire, and trying to shut down. What is causing this?
When we hit Ctl/Alt/Dlt - it said something was running in the background, but nothing was on the task bar below. It asked for shut down or end task. After clicking on end task (we were finally allowed to use our pointer) absolutely nothing happened after waiting for awhile. So then we went to start to close down and then it froze again.
Then went back to Ctl/Alt/Dlt - and it unfroze and then it started it's shutdown process and then froze halfway through it so the only way we could shut down was to manually shut it off.
How can I rectify this problem? Please help!!!!
