Non responding programs

Surely there must be a way of fixing constant Non Responding Programs. I am
at my wit's end . Using Win XP pro

 

Whatever the problem is, reinstalling Windows should fix it

"It almost boils down to "it could be anything", which is unfortunately
fairly accurate. The actual cause, and the solution, will depend on the
specifics of what you're seeing."

We are at our wits end as well. There have been several replies to your
original post that you have not even read.

 

I did not receive my original post. How can I get it.

 

I don't think there is a pat answer here. You haven't said which programs
those are.

 

A Petro, Maybe Jeff is thinking about all the other posts where you ask a
question and get responses, but you never return to say it worked or not, or
just an "ok".

Your RAM is how much?

 

I see the same question you posted back on 6/8/2011. There are many answers
and some questions to find out more from you.

 

It startsas soon as I open Internet explorer or Outlook express.

 

Those two programs use Internet connections. They might have proxy settings,
to be used rather than direct connections.

Maybe all of your Internet programs are doing that ? Does Firefox do that ?
Does Opera do that ?

The next step would be to look for an error console, a log file, or look
for errors in Event Viewer, to see if the affected programs are
making note of the problem or not. Perhaps a necessary Service is no
longer running, that both programs need.

Sounds like a virus or a piece of a virus. You need to be sure
IE and OE are uptodate and computer scanned...

 

+1 on the virual enhancement.
