Open any of your program files as text in notepad or wordpad or the like and delete a few characters at random. You will now have a corrupted file. Spyware and virus scan programs are merely for finding specific items and fixing or deleting them (or quarantining without fixing). If I opened, for instance, the executable file for your Internet Explorer and randomly deleted characters, I doubt that any spyware or virus scanner would find it. The program simply wouldn't operate properly and the only way to fix it would be to reinstall which would overwrite the file I had "corrupted".

What usually happens is that you get some pixel dust in the semiconductor-rectifier which causes the file to do a stack dump of the modulator/demodulator codecs which in turn casues a bilinear malfunction of the os's dynamic link libraries and, ummmmmmmmmm. See condensed version below:
[Do-do happens].
Sometimes running the os install fixes problems like that and sometimes not; kind of a crap shoot. I'm guessing you're running Win 98?
