all i know is the server was restarted due to some windows updates this past monday. I was not aware of the updates to create this issue. they were only security patches.

Any help would be great and thanks.

if wordpad is crashing, that usually a sign of a memory or disk problem.  Try running memtest on the server and make sure it checks out ok.
