Freecell will not run anymore. First, the message
reads, "An error has occurred in your program. To Keep
working anyway click Ignore and save your work in a new
file." Next, when I click on details, it
reads, "Cards.dll accessed memory improperly or
encountered some non specific error." I ran scandisk/disk
defrag/checked my PC for viruses. Everything checks out
okay. Does anyone know what's going on here? Desperate
lady. Playing freecell helps to ease my tension! Thanks!

There have been no reported fixes for this problem but I have a couple of
suggestions that you can try.
Go to control panel, add remove programs, windows setup tab, double click
accessories, remove the mark from games and OK your way out. Reboot and go
back and put the mark back to reinstall games.

Spyware/scumware/adware are causing numerous system problems. I recommend
you download and use the following programs and consider removing everything
these programs identify. Be aware that there are frequent updates to these
programs and you need to check for them before every use.
