Once I load Mount&Blade, all programs/windows that weren't previously running will crash when opened (illegal operation). Opening any directory will crash Explorer. Running any other software will cause that software to fail as well. This behavior still occurs if I close Mount&Blade from the menu screen with or without loading it. No other program installed causes this error. I can and continue to play the game, though.
I have scanned my system for viruses, spyware, and adware and the problem persists. My virus definitions, video card drivers, DirectX version (although I do have 9.0 SDK rather than 9.0c since Win98SE/Visual C++ 6.0 is no longer supported), and Windows Update stuff is all up-to-date. I have uninstalled Mount&Blade and reinstalled with no change. Upgrading to version 0.622 did not help, either.
