Default Registry help needed

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling MathCAD? Have you updated your
AV definitions and scanned the .tmp file again? Is there a setting in your
AV program to ignore MathCAD and its components?
If you run MSCONFIG, do any of the old O2000 files show up under the startup
tab? If so, uncheck them and see if that corrects the problem.

SC Tom,

Thanks for replying. I did as you suggested and that did help somewhat. It
cleared up the list of programs generated by "Add/Remove Programs" utility
in the Control Panel (however Office 2000 programs still show up when I
run msinfo32). It also enabled Outlook Express to go to Office 2007 for
spell checking (however I still have the problem with opening Mathcad).
Thanks again.

I just replaced Office 2000 SR-1 with Office Home & Student 2007.
Unfortunately, I didn't have the original install disc for Office 2000
SR-1
so I force uninstalled it (just the program files).

The symptoms I'm getting are with two programs, Outlook Express and
Mathcad.
With OE every time I send an e-mail I get an error message from Windows
Installer saying it is trying to configure Office 2000 SR-1 (the e-mail
goes
through by the way) and with Mathcad I get a message from my anti-virus
program saying it has quarantined a ~f1d055.tmp file and the program
fails
to open. Also, when I list programs on my machine Office 2000 SR-1 still
comes up. I suspect these problems are related to the registry and would
like some advice as to what I need to change there. Thanks in advance.


Try this and see if it helps:
