A strange, minor problem cropped up on my system last week. Windows ME Op. System. The Solitaire program does bizarre things when it keeps score (Las Vegas rules). It is supposed to subtract 52 dollars for each new hand dealt and add back five for each card finished. Instead, it started to randomly fluctuate by thousands or tens of thousands of "dollars" with each click of the mouse. Last night, for one game, it went back to doing it the right way, then started randomly fluctuating again. I can live with it, but am wondering whether it is the sign of a virus or some other system problem.
