I need some help please. For some reason I am now getting this message
when
I launch a program. "!This MSI must be launched through setup" I have
never
received this message before using this program. This program is not
in the msconfig in the startup. It's launched through the
start/programs/… I have uninstalled and reinstalled a newer version. I
found some information on this problem through Symantec and followed
their recommendations.

But I'm am still getting the message. I thought to re-install the MSI
installer but I'm not sure in Windows XP has a repair. I also did a
win xp repair to see if that would corrected the problem. It did not.
I also tried to do a system
restore, but since I did a repair I only have the last day before the
repair. I saw reg patch at kellys XP korner, but I'm not sure that is
again
for win xp. Sorry for the rambling, but this is an Annoyance!
Thanks,
Arm
