Windows Script Host error

Whenever I send an email or newsgroup post in OE, I get a Windows Script Host error message: "Loading your settings failed. (Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.) The messages still get sent and posted. It's just a nuisance getting and closing this error message every single time.

I have plenty of memory and disk space. I'm using XP. I've got ZoneAlarm Pro up and running. Any ideas what this could be?

If there's a Details button within the error, press it and copy/paste the
details into your reply to this thread. Otherwise it sounds like you've got
hijackware problems:

Check your system for "hijackware":

CoolWebSearch Chronicles & CWShredder
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html

Run in this order:

1. CWShredder (fix all)

2. Ad-Aware (fix all)

3. Spybot (generally, fix all in red)

Important: You *must* seek updates for Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc., before each
and every use, even "right out of the box". But even they can't catch
everything, 24/7. When all else fails, HijackThis
(http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post

[Alternate download pages for many of the above tools may be found at

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
