Set up a new user account and try it again.

If it still is doing it? If yes, you can use a

As you can readily see, something like this may not
be easy to run down.
And, if your Security is laxed or you have an
infection it can make it that much harder.
Try running and external virus scan

========================
I am running an XP box with 256 meg of ram. I have
earthlink's spyblocker
and the balance of their tools working. Everytime I
jump to a pdf file
within explorer, explorer locks up and closes when
exiting acrobat. I have
similar problems when jumping to different graphs
within a website, ie
Investors Business Daily.
Anyone willing or can give me some direction I
woudl greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
