Thanks for responding William -

Norton SystemWorks WinDoctor provided the id for each registry entry so I was able to use regedit to search for the entries. The name of each of the dll's that were giving me problems were in the registry entries. It didn't solve all my problems but it was nice to have the universe narrowed to a few dlls.

Thanks!


>>after I uninstalled the app. There were no problems with the first two scans but after uninstalling the app it produced 40 errors. All were from the HKey_Classes_Root. SystemWorks indicated that "The ActiveX/COM section of your windows registry contain one or more invalid entries."
