One thing's always worth checking -- are you sure you don't have a virus?
Another mailing list I'm on has had several instances of variants of the "Klez
worm" recently, and one of them is known to intenionally corrupt programs over
time (I've seen it happen).

If you don't already have one, you can get free anti-virus programs from

  http://www.free-av.com/
    (free only for personal use; I use this)

  http://www.grisoft.com/
    (free for personal or business, but needs your email address to register)

Hope that helps, and that you get your OSK working again,
Hugh
