no i havent scanned for viruses and spyware. i am going to now though. all i am using is norton antivirus. is that sufficient?

I worked it out. I just searched for vsutil.dll and deleted it. That allowed me to install the program. It turns out that it is a file installed by Zonealarm. coz i installed it the last time, it was left there and Zonealarm didnt want to overwrite it. I hope this helps u lot out there.

When installing zonealarm for ntl broadband, i get the following message: ERROR _____________________ Could not load the DLL library C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\vsutil.dll (VSPWInstPasswordRequired). The specified procedure could not be found. Can anyone help me in this. I will also look in google for...

Hi Matt. Before i run that. doesnt it just restore to the last backup it made? I understand that it makes a backup everytime you boot up the computer. Thanks

Hi Matt. I tried it but it still didn't help. I forgot to mention that i reinstalled windows Me. it wasnt a clean install, i just put the cd in and ran setup.exe but that didnt help either. i am willing to hear any other suggestions. I have tried registry cleaners in the past but i dont think...

Thanks Matt J. I will remember that advice. I am going to try that scanreg now. i will let you know how it went. Fingers crossed. Thanks. p.s. Look, u have a star next to ur thread!

Hi All. I was uninstalling some programs whilst in safe mode. When I restarted my computer, I noticed that i had no programs listed in add/remove programs. I think that it is to do with a part of my registry being deleted because i was uninstalling in safe mode. is there any way of restoring...
