Thanks JoAnn. It's my daughter's problem. She has Off 2000 Pro and Win Me on
her PC and she can no longer connect to the internet. Don't know what's wrong.
Think I'll reformat the hard drive, then install Win XP, then reinstall Off
2000 Pro. If viruses are causing the problem, this should clear them. Sound
reasonable to you?
Thanks,
Robert

I would try a virus scan first if you suspect that's the problem. I have no
problem with reformats but I would try to diagnose the issue first, then
decide what I'd do next.

I beleive she said that she gets many hits every time she runs the virus
scanner. I'll scan for viruses on her PC tomorrow and see what
recommendations it makes.

It sounds like she's not running and AV program at all. If that's the case,
you may end up doing that reformat after all. I recently worked on a system
with the Klez worm (nasty little bugger!). I got lucky - I only had to do a
repair of Windows after removing it.

Just in case you do have to wipe everything clean, make sure you have all of
her CDS and the *product keys* before you start. I would recommend running
Belarc Advisor first so you know what she has installed and take it from
there. Good luck.
