| Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? O/S Vista Home Basic 32 bit. AVG paid version. IE7. Due to a cancelled install of IE8 I'm getting IE script error message and Regsvr error codes and printer not printing. I have spoken to the M/S support phone # and they haven't been able to help after 2 hours and then keep missing calling me at the previously arranged follow up appointments. Is there a way that I can uninstall IE7 and then do an install of a clean IE7 without having to wipe my entire computer clean and reinstall everything from ground zero? |

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? I understand. However, the IE8 was in mid-install when I cancelled it. I think that somehow corrupted my existing IE7. That is why I would like to install a clean IE7 if such is possible.

Try installing IE8 again and this time let it finish. After it has finished installing you can now uninstall it, this will automatically install IE7. Let us know what happens. -- Bob Eyster Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 - 32 Bit - IE8 |

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? I'm shamefaced. Usually don't miss things like that. My apologies. 4. IE Script Error An error has occured in the script on this page Line 1829 Char: 1 Error: Unspecified Error Code: 0 URL: res://ieframe.dll/preview.dlg I tried Start/Run & type regsvr32 ole32.dll press enter & reboot No good. I still get the above message when I try to print anything plus it freezes whatever window I'm in when trying to print. I have to use task mgr. to get out of freeze. Also, was getting a further message: RegSvr32 The module "ole32.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005. Have not gotten that message in 2 days. I did try disabling UAC & doing the Start/Run, type regsvr32 ole32.dll then reboot & try It said it suceeded. But then I tried to print & got the same message again re: IE Script Error and once again more freezing the window. The only thing it does not freeze is when I try to print a page from the internet. BTW, I did turn UAC back on after the test. And yes, I rebooted after turning UAC back on.

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? Are any of these AVG Add-ons installed? => Linkscanner, Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, Security toolbar [As they're all available in AVG Free, I presume they're available in the paid versions. YMMV.] Was AVG (and the AVG firewall, if present) running in the background when you attempted to install IE8?

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? Yes, I have the AVG Link Scanner & Web Shield. I uninstalled the AVG Toolbar a long time ago (don't like too many add ons, plus it made "bugs", plus didn't need it). There is no AVG Firewall for me...at least there's nothing listed as a "firewall". My paid AVG is anti virus not the entire security suite. However, I DO have my windows firewall so no need for another one. Plus, I'm wireless which people keep telling me IS a firewall. Well now...as to the AVG running in the background...I assume it's always running in the background isn't it? It has to in order to do it's work doesn't it? But if you're asking if it was being updated at that moment... the answer is no. I do that 1st thing each morning when I turn the computer on before I do ANYTHING else on the computer. I will try the reset. Should I turn off AVG before doing the reset?

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? PA Bear, I am overjoyed to say that I'm up & running, printing & scanning and have no error messages of any kind! WHEW! This has been one wild ride to be sure. I want to thank you for your patient guidance through this convoluted process. Never doubt that it is most certainly appreciated. There is one little thing that is odd. Prior to this happening, I was able to use the printer with the UAC turned on. Now I find that the only way the printer will print is with the UAC turned OFF. Weird..... Perhaps I should address that issue in the group dealing with printers. Furthermore; I am not sure it really matters if I have UAC on or off as there is only 1 computer & 1 printer in the home & I am the only one who uses them so perhaps leaving the UAC turned off is of no consequence. Okay, what about the AVG Link Scanner and Web Shield?

| Re: Uninstall & then reinstall a clean IE7? Great news & you're very welcome. IN RE AVG, I would strongly recommend that you: 1. Make certain you have your Product ID or AVG license handy; 2. Uninstall AVG (Pro? Internet Security?) & reboot; NB: You're "working without a net" now: Don't to ANYTHING else online (e.g., browsing; reading email; chatting) until you've completed #3 through #5 below!! NB: If you're running AVG Internet Security, make certain the the Windows Firewall is enabled at this point. 3. Reinstall the AVG application...this time select the CUSTOM install option and do NOT to install Linkscanner, Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, Security toolbar, and/or any of the email scanning components. Follow all prompts. [Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ing/index.htm] 4. If you're running AVG Internet Security, the AVG firewall should be enabled now and the Windows Firewall should be disabled. 5. Now update AVG manually & repeatedly until you get a "No more updates" prompt. IN RE printing & UAC, I'd recommend that you begin a new thread about the behavior in Vista Print_Fax_Scan newsgroup: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...print_fax_scan Tell 'em I sent you! <wink> Happy Trails! -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 www.banthecheck.com tryingtolearn wrote: > PA Bear, I am overjoyed to say that I'm up & running, printing & scanning > and have no error messages of any kind!
