Hi, Whoever can help! I am getting the same error message as Mako Fusion. "Runtime Error '429'. Activex controls cannot create object." This is followed by the standard, "This program<meaning sg> has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If this problem persists, contact the program vendor."
>Java, I really trust your work, and I know that even my jurrasic era machine (1998 IBM workstation) will not be hurt by your programs. However, I was hoping that SpyGuard would be able to protect my machine from hostile takeover (question: does that make spyware a form of internet piracy?)
>I realize that this cannot be an inherent trait in the program or it would have been addressed already. Is it possible that something in Windows 98 (US version, I believe it is the one intended for home use) is incompatible with SpyGuards control settings, or that the program is simply too much for my memory card to run on its own? Or have I already got too much stuff running without SpyGuard? Any answer might help.

 

Could you please see if the advice in this thread helps?

HeyPhil - I have SpywareGuard running on an old machine with Win98se and 64MB RAM without any problems, so I don't think there's an incompatibility between SG and Windows 98 ...

 

Thank you (again), Javacool,
Once again, you have put your finger on the exact problem! My machine was not running scripts right. The download on the thread you indicated was perfect to correct the problem- because it replaced my version of scripts altogether. SpywareGuard now works, alongside BrowserHijackBlaster and my Virus Scanner (Thank you, Paul, for pointing me to a good freeware virus scanner- I chose AVG anti virus).
>Douglas Adams used to joke about the state of programming companies in the UK, claiming that they could not even be mentioned in the same sentence with the large American programming outfits. You have proved to me that this is not because of a lack of ability or chutzpa on the part of British programmers. A thousand thanks, and hopes for a parasite/virus/trojan free machine,
Phil

 

This worked for me, no more error message. I'm running Windows 98se, 64 MB ram BTW.

Download the current Microsoft Scripting Runtime from the Microsoft site (as of this writing, 5.6 was the latest version)

Go here to go to the Microsoft Scripting site and download and install the latest version for your operating system and language. http://www.microsoft.com/scripting

Download and install the latest version

Re-run SpywareGuard and see if you still get the error
