Programs shut down without warning

Please can anyone help
I can open programs but if I click File>>Open the program shuts down without any error message appearing
Similarly, if I create an email in AOL, I can send it without any problem, but if I click Attachments, then Attach, the program closes instantaneously
Any ideas, please?
 
Sorry to come back, but I don't know whether an error message when opening windows regarding VSStart.exe has anything to do with the problem.
 
Hello Deryck

The same thing is happening to me (sort of). See my posting "infected OS with unknown virus"

Could you have the same thing I have

Hello, Enaudij

Thanks for your reply
I don't think that I have a virus (or at least my installed copy of Mcafee Virus Scan, and an on-line search by Panda says that I don't)
Attack by virus were suggested to me by my local computer dealer (who upgraded me to Windows XP ten days ago) and AOL technical Support, so I carried out the above scans but these yielded no viruses in residence
The other suggestion is that there is some form of software conflict, but nothing shows up in Windows Help and Support on my computer
Let's hope there's someone looking at our postings at this very moment with the solution to both our problems at their fingertips

Regards
