just wondering if win 98 has some kind of log file that records events and
operations conducted on a computer, like whether files have been unhidden,
or whether an email application was opened up, and at what time.  Does this
feature exist?  Thanks for any feedback.

they return. Any software that I could use or strategy?

Windows 98 came installed on my HP 8580C PC
When I try to SHUT DOWN or RESTART my computer this
message appears "This program (Nisserv) has performed an
illegal operation and will be shut down......"

restarted, it skips the network logon.  When you log off,
it will give you the chance to logon correctly.  I was
told there is a registry key that needs to be changed.
