Okay, that made the 'richedit' fixmes go away! However, the app still freezes.

It is the 'Drake' tax preparation program.

I mentioned before that, when it first starts up there is an error
window titled "DWIN.DLL" which says 'Disabling Menus. 5=Access
Denied'. With an 'OK' button which, when clicked, lets me log in to
the program.

Google says that dwin.dll is a malicious virus, but Drake's tech
support assures me that they also have a .dll with such a
name. 

Thanks so much for your help with this!
