Here is my problem. Almost everything I open, the same type of error pops up for the program...these in the pic are just some of the errors i have running at the moment. Ill also get errors on ASv6, DVA ACARS, etc.
Sometimes, programs close on me automatically like AIM and Google Earth...and the internet closes on me automatically when im in yousendit and browsing for a file to send.
This has been happening for about 1-2 months, and I regret not dealing with it back then, but now I am, cause Ive tried everything to solve it, but nothing seems to work.
Its appearantly not a virus cause I've scanned with Norton AntiVirus numerous times and nothing shows as a virus, spyware, etc.
Computer gurus, I need your help on this....what should I do?

Does anyone else have any insight on this?
As recommended by Joe, I used a free trial of a good anti-virus program that found many problems, then repaired those errors, but I'm still getting these errors.
I really need help with this

Funny thing is, is that I've also had Norton running the whole time my computer is on, so I dont know whatever it is, if it's even a virus,spyware, etc. or just a simple setting I changed somehow.
If it is a virus,spware, etc. then it must've squeaked by Norton since I always have that running.

I've given up on Norton. That's normally the first thing I uninstall when I buy a PC. At work, we normally buy Dell computers and Dell loads McAfee on their products. The anti-virus I've been most happy with is NOD32 from Eset. Works awesome!
