Sounds like your Brother's PowerMail has confused Adobe Illustrator with SpamSieve, so it tries to launch AI to filer the spam. Or a 2nd possibility, PM wants to use AI as a spell checker? AI will of course not work well for either of those functions. Maybe you can see if this is th eproblem, and disconnect AI from PM.
Try going the PM Prefs, Select the bottom item; "Mark As Spam". Then push the button "Spam Filter Assistant..." Click "Continue" then UNcheck all the boxes in the "Evaluate Spam" window. (Especially the lower 3) Maybe one of those has accidentally gotten linked to AI. I'm not sure how to unlink a Word Services Spell checker. There only seem to be a way to link to a Word Services spell checker, an no obvious way to forget it. MAybe you'll need to set all prefs back to factory default to zero that setting? Hope this helps.
