Hi Stack,

I saw that article earlier, however it's for developers not end users.

Judging from the information in this article however:
http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108201
it seems that you might need to repair Windows..

How To Repair Windows:

Afterwards, boot up your system, turn on your XP Internet Firewall,
plug back into your Internet connection and install all Critical and
Recommended updates from: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
