I've had this problem for some time and haven't been able to find a solution to it. When using notepad (my all-time favourite application) it will randomly close on me, causing me to lose anything I didn't save and losing track of where I was in large files. I've scanned for viruses and spyware, but nothing has turned up, they are both up to date. Has anybody ever encountered this kind of problem?

Sounds like a virus.

Format and reinstall.

Sounds like a bad suggestion.  

You should try letting someone (a friend, hopefully) send you notepad.exe. See if that does the same thing.

Free yourself from the M$ shackles and embrace vi!

Well, at least you're not using emacs.  Still, only the users of vi shall be saved when the day of reckoning is edited!

What version of windows are you on joker?

I agree with the suggestion about getting notepad.exe from a friend.  If I was on windows, and if I was your friend, I'd send it to you

<edit> GET PICO!  MUAHAHA! *dodges bullet from real Linux people*

Actually, vi > *, once you get to know it.

i only know 3 commands (:q, :w, and :wq) and i still love vi.

XP Home Edition
Version 2002
SP1 (hm I'll upgrade that)

I'll try vi, I downloaded it, but havent used/installed yet. I'll try getting notepad.exe off a friend first.

Vi is hateful. nano > *

VI = Wordpad.

DELETED.

You can't uninstall notepad and reinstall off of the windows disk?
