For some reason, I lost the notepad on my computer. I think that it was accidentally deleted when I removed a virus. I have looked at the Microsoft's web site for a way to download a notepad back to my web site. But I cannot seem to find a link to download a notepad. Can someone please help me find a way to get the notepad back on my computer?

I lost notepad once.

There is another copy in either the C:\WINDOWS\System or C:\WINDOWS\System32 folder (look for notepad.exe)

Textpad and UltraEdit are pretty good. Never use notepad.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

Didn't mean to imply that it wasn't useful, just that there's a whole lot of alternative text editors most of which offer more features.
