Does anyone know why programs such as AOL, or Stickies will just suddenly quit. A message will come up that says the application has suddenly quit. Do I have a virus? How do I get that to stop happening? If anyone can help please let me know! Thanks

You don't have a virus. There are no viruses for Mac OS X.

You could have a corrupt preference file, or font or something. Try if you can launch these applications from another user. If so, you know the problem is most likely in your Library folder.

You can also post a crash log from ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/theAppThatCrashed.crash.log here. That might give a hint about the problem.
Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.
