Thanks :-) After the scan disc my computer is now downloading but our other (after scan disc - no problems found) is not Its still giving a "not a valid etc" error. So I'll try Humpty's *run* option on that tomorrow - that's if I dont smack it one with a big mallet first ! I have run every scan I can think of on mine (this one) and its clean. But I'm going to post a HJT anyway as there are a couple of things I don't recognise.... Hope that's OK? Not sure how to give a link to this thread so I'll just *tiny* it. Thanks again all Rosie2

Thanks :-) I'll try the disc check first, then the drag an drop, then HJT. Will get back with results asap. Thanks so much for your help everyone ! Great to have help when things are tough :-) Rosie2

Hi Cant remember in/uninstalling any programs on this computer and definitely not on the other. Trying to solve the problem I reinstalled IE7 (in case it was corrupted) but that didnt work either. Yes they are networked - but only 2 shared folders, not the drives. I can run a HJT but it may not be the current one - cant download that :-( I'm going to run the check disc, then get on to HJT if it wont work. Thanks :-)

Hi I've re-downloaded several times (clearing cache, temp and recycle bin each time) just wont work. But thanks :-) On the Win Installer - sorry my bad. Its actually 3.1 (v2) and I found it here (and also on MS KB): http://tinyurl.com/zkvi The .exe file fix didnt work either..I've been chasing this problem for a couple of week now and - nothing, getting desperate. Thanks for suggestions Rosie2

Thanks - I'll try that, and let you know how it goes :-)

Hi My first post here and already looking for help sorry <grin> I'm having problems up dating to the latest CCleaner. The file downloads to the desktop fine - well, maybe a bit quick - but when I click *run* I just get a message telling me : "C:\ <my name>\ CCleaner\ not a valid win32 application". and the installation just closes. I'm also having this same problem with other programs (any) I try to download. And on out other computer as well... Both are running: Win XP professional SP2 (all updated) No web accelerator Zone alarm 7 (on one, but not the other computer - got the "not valid..." error trying to update that one) I did find an update for windows installer (3.2?) but I couldn't install that either... Ant help appreciated Thanks Rosie2
