   Problem with Windows XP home about 26 ho   
   03 Dec 10 13:41:24   
   
   From: neutrino1@ca.rr.com   
      
   I run my desktop computer remotely with my laptop computer using   
   TightVNC because I can use my laptop while laying down.  For the   
   last several days, when I try to use the desktop computer, I find   
   that TightVNC has shut its self down and I cannot establish a new   
   connection.   
      
   When I go into the computer room, I find that several programs on   
   the desktop computer have error messages saying that they cannot   
   write a file.  Agent 5.0 says that it has an unknown exception.   
      
   Yankee Clipper III says that it cannot save files because it has   
   insufficient resources.  Yankee Clipper III will have as many as 350   
   error messages stacked up on top of each other.   
      
   I use StatBar.  It will have black rectangles instead of its normal   
   buttons.  ACDSee 2.4 will forget that it is registered and it will   
   forget the list of most recent directories that files were moved or   
   copied to.  After I reboot, ACDSee will remember these things again.   
      
   Even after I dismiss all the error messages, the computer does not   
   operate correctly so I have to reboot.  I have stopped loading   
   Yankee Clipper III but I still have the problem.   
      
   I used to be able to run this computer for weeks and only reboot   
   when a Windows update required a reboot.  I have two gigs of ram and   
   a fixed size four gigs of page file.  Windows Task Manager says that   
   the page file is always less than 900 megs.   
      
   Does anyone know what is causing this and what I can do to solve   
   this problem?  Thank you in advance for all replies.

   Whenever I hear or think of the song "Great green gobs of greasy   
   grimey gopher guts" I imagine my cat saying; "That sounds REALLY,   
   REALLY good.  I'll have some of that!"
