blocking issue during upgrade

I installed XP home bbut had to revet back to Win98. Now
when I try to install upgrade to XP I get a "Blocking
issue" It has to do with "microsoft shared fax client" I
can't find this to uninstall it. HELP!!! Where is this
coming from and how do I fix it???

Open up My Computer.
Go to Tools, Folder Options.
Put a check in "Show hidden files and folders".
Click on Start, then Run.
Type in: CMD.
Type in: cd\ , then hit enter
Type in: dir fxsclnt.exe /s
Remember what directory you found the file in.
Type in Exit.
Double click on My Computer.
Right-click on the C: drive and click on Explorer.
Find the directory that housed the fxsclnt.exe.
Delete the file and restart.

Now, you should be able to upgrade to Windows XP.
