That's a problem. It would be easier to pin-point the day and what new
program you installed then.

AT> Did you ask for help in this group?

Yes, and the group helped me. As usual. :-)

AT> Can I search for your question?

I don't remember the subject, only that I lived in Taiwan from 1999 to
2002. If you search my postings during that time, I expect there will
be too many. Unless, that is, the archive doesn't go back that far. I
don't think that it will help solve your problem though, as it was
related to C-Win98.

I think it had to do with double-byte characters at the time. Dutch
doesn't use that. If I remembered at least part of the registry path,
I would direct you. Age has taken it's toll, but I will try again with
some Gingko Biloba.

AT> Thanks for letting me know I am not the only one with the problem.

I'm sorry I cannot offer a ready solution.
