Hi!

I'm hoping that I'm posting in the correct forum here, if not I apologise. Not being very good with computers, I also apologise if this is a rather daft/easy to solve problem.

My operating system is Windows XP Home and my broswer (if it's anything to do with this) is IE8.

The problem: I've been using a program (ComicRack, for reading digital comics) for the past year or so without a hitch but in the past couple of days every time I try to run the program I instantly get a warning box and the message "ComicRack.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close, we're sorry for the inconvenience" etc.

I've tried uninstalling the program (and a box pops up saying that full uninstall has been successful) and then reinstalling but with no luck. I've also tried installing slightly different versions of the same program but get the same .exe fail message every time.

I recently executed a System Restore to a point from a month ago, but other than that I don't *think* I've changed anything about my PC set-up. I tried to undo that System Restore in the hope that I'd go back to where I started and get ComicRack back but I just ended up with a message that reversing the System Restore was unsuccessful. I don't want to try anything else in case I'm screwing things up even worse.

Can anyone give me some advice as to why this program suddenly won't open, or how I can now fix it? Any help would be hugely appreciated, thank you.
