CS> TW> Again YES it is there, along with Notepad, but Wordpad DOES NOT WORK.

CS>Tom, I don't want to alarm you but that particular problem can occur
CS>with certain virus infections.   Have you done a complete scan of your
CS>XP to be sure it's clean?

CS>There's a bunch of stuff about it in the Google Groups data base.  You
CS>might want to take a look and see if any of it applies to you.  I
CS>don't know if you got on the net after installing XP but if you did
CS>and was not using a firewall or at least a router with NAT, it
CS>wouldn't take long to get infected.   I know you're on dial up but
CS>that doesn't matter - just as dangerous.

 I use AVG wghich I update almost Daily and it finds Nothing.
I also keep XP updated.
I am using the XP firewal lbut it passes Gibsons Firewall test. Although
that could be of little consiquence.
But as I found out Two prior versions of "Wordpad", 8/4/96 and 4/23/99
apparently work just fine.
