doc37 Posted December 2, 2006 ID:1743 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Hi new user and need help. Even with norton anti virus and spyblaster I got a virus on wordpad on an older computer 98 second edition. It says it performed an illegal operation and must be closed. Therefore I cannot open anything in wordpad. Of course microsoft has dropped any help for 98. Any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc37 Posted December 8, 2006 Author ID:1763 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I followed your insructions from hijak post with a link to superspyware. They were very helpful and we found a file that was stopping the program. However I am still not able to open some wordpad files getting the same error message as before. Any Ideas?

Root Admin RubbeR DuckY Posted December 8, 2006 Root Admin ID:1765 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Please try replacing Wordpad.exe by downloading the file below and unzipping it to where Wordpad.exe is at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prm753 Posted December 8, 2006 ID:1766 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Here doc37, I'll save you the trouble, so you don't accidentally download a virus off of a warez site. This is not an official Wordpad mirror, I'm taking this link down in 24-36 hours...Link removed. -Prm753 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
