You might benefit from ...
Ignore the title and follow the sub-section under "Advanced Troubleshooting"
titled, "Method 1: Reset the registry and the file permissions"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949377
And you went through all of this?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/900904
(Try again after doing the first suggestion...)
(Logged in as an administrative user...)
You also might:
Download, install, run, update and perform a full scan (separately) with the
following two applications (freeware versions are the ones to use for this):
SuperAntiSpyware
http://www.superantispyware.com/
MalwareBytes
http://www.malwarebytes.com/
After performing a full scan with one and then the other and removing
whatever they both find completely, you may uninstall these products,
if you wish.
Download and run the MSRT manually:

Reboot.
This is a recent issue?
Have you and those attempting to assits you considered alternate methods (in
many ways better) such as "TeamViewer"?
