Dll won't register

when I try to install spywareguard on the computer i get a message that says

Unable to register the "DLL/OCX: DllRegisterServer failed; code 0x8007005."
I have tryed to fix this by manually registering it with regsvr32 and i get a failed return code 0x800004005. i have re-installed Wscript 5.6 and Visual Basic SP6 as well a re-downloading a fresh copy of spywareguard to no avail. I have insatlled this on a dozen computers at least and never had this happen. the program will run then crash after about 3 min with error code 429. HELP, Please

 

Hi smurph, and welcome to the forum.

Could you try the MSCOMCTL.OCX Installer (missingfilessetup.exe) found in this post, under number (3)

And let us know if that helps.

Also, if you could tell us what your operating system is, that would be helpful too.

snapdragin you are the man. It worked like a charm. Thanks

 

OOps .... sorry that did not fix it. it still wont register. Problem not solved.....

 

computer is running xp home sp2 with all updates. It was used by mom, dad, and 3 kids for 2 years on alwyas on cable modem with no protection not even a firewall. I spent 9 hours removing several dozen nasty programs including several hours editing registry, it could have been my doing. comp goes back today with sygate, spybot s&d with tea timer, spyblaster, Firefox (set as default), and I hope spyware Guard.

 

Hey smurph,

It appears via a few of your comments that your knowledgeable....but have to ask anyway.

On this Xp machine your working with....you do have Admin privligies when your attempting to register the DLL's ?

Also....considering some of the other comments you made...."2 years....cable modem....no protection not even a firewall"....any chance of starting all over with a clean machine ? I mean 9 hours in the registry is a long time....but wonder what else hasn't been uncovered ?
