Thank you, Andrew E. I scanned a clean system (not the one having this
problem) and found 31 files that are not digitally signed. Most are in a
spool folder and relate to various printers.
Perhaps a property was set in the registry that enforces digital signatures
on that system. Otherwise, why would the install fail? Curious.
It just 'feels' like a bug. One always begins to think of malware.
Other ideas, anyone?
