| well my worst nightmare came true : "Restore" didn't work. It said I hadn't
| made any changes to my computer. I guess un-installing Net Framework 2.0
| KB110806 was not considered a change "windows update" says there are no
| updates for my computer available. I have no version of Net Framework at all
| now. No wonder microsoft office applications are not working.
| Well Mr. TaurArian. No wonder you said use this cleanup tool as a
| last resort. It was my last resort though. "Add or Remove Programs" didn't
| work to un-install the Net Framework so I had to use the cleanup tool you
| recommended. Well I'm really stuck now. Please reply if you have any
| possible options I may have. Thanks much
