All the problems I'm going to list have just started in the past day or two:
OK, the first thing I noticed happening was yesterday when WMP wouldn't work. When I try to open it, a window opens stating that 'An internal application error has occurred'.

When I Googled the error message, I found this website:

If you look at the site, it gives two suggestions to fix the problem. The first method involves re-registering two files. When I attempt to run them, they aren't even found by windows so I go on to method #2 which involves editing the registry. Neither of the two registry keys are located within regedit. I locate all of the folders until 'CLSID'. That folder doesn't even exist so I reall can't go any further.
Another problem that's related to WMP is that if I click on a link to a website that has a video in WMP format, I can only hear the audio, and can't see any of the video.

Another problem I'm having is that I can't see any shout box dialog. The other people that I PM on the sites that have shout box's, say that they can see it just fine. I just see it a a blank box.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Another problem is with links. Normally in Hotmail mail is opened by clicking on a link. I can't open any mail in Hotmail because none of the links work for me. I can however use links that are post on this board, but I cannot use the smilies on this board as well as the "tags" links such as [/img] or [/url]. If I want to utilize the tags or smilies, I have to type in the code manually.
-----------------------------------------------------------
I thought that maybe I could do a system restore to fix these problems, but system restore doesn't work. When I open it, it seems that its not responding: I've tried it several times with the same result.

I can't run Norton AV because the screen comes up blank with no 'Start scan' link. In fact, there is nothing in the entire box:

I'm posting this in hopes that someone will see a connection/pattern in these problems. Could it be a Java problem er something? I'm at a loss.
