Well, for better reliability in the future, you could avoid running
programs like ShockWave and scandisk and explorer that weren't written
in Ada. That's pretty impractical advice, but the only advice I can give
that would be even remotely on-topic in the Ada newsgroup you posted to.

Perhaps you were hoping we'd all get incensed by your plight, and go out
and rewrite Shockwave and scandisk and explorer in Ada for you? If
that's the case, you should go check out
