If you just run the first half, it should pop up with a dialog box with a bunch of Regsvr32 usage instructions, correct?

Did you copy/paste the command into the command prompt? (if you copy the entire command, and then right click on the top bar of the command prompt, you can select 'Edit -> Paste' )

probably some kind of unknown security program or something since i've tried it in windows vista home premium and windows 7 pro and works. Maybe try uninstalling and the installing. ----------------------------- [color=purple]Contrary to popular belief, the Irish and I are not married[/color]

Yea, there needs to be a space there. The first half is calling the command to register a DLL. The second half is the DLL itself, with the full path. Wish I had Vista 32 in front of me, but we skipped that at work entirely *lol* Unfortunately, if you've done everything as written, and it isn't registering, then it is entirely possible there is something else very wrong with the machine, though I try not to jump to that conclusion. Now, it's not proper, but you can try moving the DLL to c:\windows and changing the second half of the command, taking out the /system32 part), but I think you will get the same exact results if you do that... edit: This is why I don't do phone support any more, when you can hop on the other persons machine with VNC or something, things like this take a minute or two *lol*
