HI! This is the first time that this has happened and I need help with the registry to unhook the ms- installer from spyware blaster.

For some reason when I launch spyware blaster is launches the microsoft office pro installer and then also launches spyware blaster. If I quit the installer then all is fine. so there must something in the registry that is linking these two together. Where in the registry would I look for this?

I tried running CCleaner and System Mechanic registry fix but no cigar :)
I also tried uninstalling blaster and deleting the folder in Program_files.

Can someone help me with this as its a nussance.

Thanks

Hello,

try running Windows Installer CleanUp Utility,

Most times it fixes these types of issues.

HI! Thanks for responding. I used it but it still keeps coming back. I also rebooted and tried again and still the same.
