I am running Win98SE on a 233 MHz Dell notebook with 64 Mbytes of RAM. Some program - I think it's Explorer.exe (not Internet Explorer) getting stuck in some sort of loop. I use MemTurbo and it shows the CPU usage as 100%. Killing Explorer and letting it automatically restart usually fixes the...

The properties of the DialUp connection keep changing to a strange user name, and some far away number. I've been deleting all connections and created new ones, but within a few seconds, the properties are changed again. Also the computer attempts to dial in at random. We've had high telephone...
