The problem is: I don't know where to find Runtime Libraries. And as for my AV, I update it daily. |

Hey, Win98 still kicks ass, no matter how many times I've reinstalled it! Switch off PC, insert W98 setup disk, reboot reinstall...
OR....
I get this error every time I open Outlook. But if you simply reopen the program once it has closed it should cause no problem. I find it rather annoying myself, but I couldn't bear to reinstall this winxp. |

C++ Runtime Library...probably more of a special DLL with generic library functions that are used during execution of a Win32 C++ program written using the Microsoft Compiler |

Erk, please consider people who aren't familliar with DOS who might try that to fix something. 
First of all, back up everything, then reboot in DOS mode and do format c:\, then reinstall. But given that error, I would wonder if you have a virus; that's not like any runtime error I've seen, and it seems very unlikely that more than one program would use that style. (Plus, I don't believe Visual C++ has runtimes at all. ) |

At least I was planning on doing so this summer (when I'll have money), I'll buy XP Pro |

actually that's a bad idea
installing windows over top of windows is dumb....
looks like your Microsoft Installer files are corrupted though.....
my suggestion would be......
get a boot disk
cd c:\
del *.*
deltree windows
deltree progra~1
then install windows again |

Reinstall Windows. Just pop the CD in and run setup.exe from the root directory. |

I'm using Win98 (yes, I know it's old) and I have a 900 Mghz (Mispelled?) ADM Athlon computer with 256mb ram but I don't really think It has something to do with my problem so I'll just show what the hell is happening...
I tried to unistall Norton AV and Norton Internet Security because it's wasn't working anymore but I got This. I also got this error when I try to run RhinoBlocker (my popup blocker, but I think you figured it out) I don't know how I can fix this and now it's preventing me from running them. And it has nothing to do with Spywares or Virus, Spybot S&D + AD-Aware + AVG are doing the job. |
