Chances are there's a problems with your XP operating system. It's probably not news to you that (with the exception of one patch in May 2017) for three years Microsoft has neither updated nor supported XP, leaving it exceedingly vulnerable to malicious hacking. This contrasts with updates for Win7, for example, which arrive weekly or more often. My primary suggestion is that you start using a different computer or upgrade the OS. It's also possible that the problem is with OE, which receives scant if any support (since it can't be used on any system beyond XP).
