AV-CLS error

I can't seem to run it one one of the WIN 98 (SE) machines at work.
Get the following error:
==================
0
ERROR : expected ')'!
Script: C:\AV-CLS\menu.kix
Line : 17
===================

Googling shows a line 13 and a line 15 error, any ideas? I do have
McAfee and did a full scan, along with Spybot & Ad-Aware - all is clean
so I doubt it is malware related.

I think it is just a typing error in the script. You can open the file
with notepad and see if there is really an error with the amount of
parenthesis.

Or you can download and install it again (remove the old version
first)

That PC is having problem with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) with is used to
determine the Boot State (Normal or Safe Mode).

I know the reason in general terms for the problem. However I don't know exactly what
aspect of WMI is failing to cause the following WMI call to fail...

GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\CIMV2").ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM
Win32_ComputerSystem","WQL",48)

You indicated you have multiple Win98 platforms where only one is failing. All I can
suggest is determining what is different bewteen that one PC and the rest.

WMI is loaded from...

Win9x/ME
%windir%\SYSTEM\WBEM

NT based OS
%windir%\SYSTEM32\WBEM

There is also a WMI test utility; WBEMTEST.EXE

And there may be a control program; WBEMCNTL.EXE

Thanx !

If I know more about the problem, I can thusly try to programmatically test for the problem
and work around it.

The resolution involves rebuilding the WMI Repository

....and what's the point of directing the OP to an article about Win XP when
he states that it's a Win9x machine??

I already did - the ONLY part of that article relevant to Win9x is the link
