I would download and install ccleaner.exe latest version and run that. Also
run antispyware, both AdAware and SpyBot (latest updates). They may catch
things your antivirus won't.
If you have a virus, this really isn't an Outlook question and you should
visit the website of your AV software. They may have an online scanner (like
Trend does) that you can use or you can at least research your symptoms. If
not, then post in a Windows 2000 group since instead of a virus you may be
suffering from file corruption or other issues.
Have you checked your application and system event viewers for errors?

It won't let you type anything in internet explorer, or outlook, and
on top of that the add remove programs list just shows icons, no
names, no details. I wanted to run a spyware can or something but the
windows installer just gives an error, (yes the actual install sheild
thingy it won't even run any setup programs)
I've tried restoring any corrupted files from the original windows cd
but no luck, hijack this yeilded no entries that might have caused
this, it was working fine this morning and then all of a sudden.....
I think it's gotta be a virus, but my antivirus software (sophos)
didn't even flinch and it's got on access scanning activated.
Help me Obiwan kanobi, you're my last hope.
