Default Virus? Paragraph, space and return marks displayed, etc.

After just spending 6 hours on and off the phone with Microsoft with another
problem, am turning to you with these since they won't help me with windows
98. A document I copied from the internet, that I've used with no problem
before, all of a sudden had paragraph, enter and space marks on it and the
popup said that it was converting to that format. Now all docs in my computer
have it - how can I get rid of it? Is is a virus? (I currently have an old
copy of norton antivirus.) Also, one of the three folders containing this and
other documents, last night gave me a message that I could only read it
(which it subsequently wouldn't let me do since it was "in use by another"
which it wasn't). Then it said that it had encountered an illegal operation
and will shut down, but it didn't. Help!!!!!
