My Adobe Reader 6.0 froze up four times in a row, so I
uninstalled it and downloaded the program again from
Adobe's website. Installed it, same thing. Tried four
times, then ran Norton WinDoctor, got this message. Can
someone help me?

"C:\Program Files\Common
Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32
\DotNetInstaller.exe" cannot access a necessary
file, "mscoree.dll."

The file should be located in windows\system32 and is either in use, missing or corrupted.

First restart the system to make sure the file is not in use by an installer session which has hung. if you still can't get the
installation to run try to locate mscoree.dll in the system32 folder. if it's not there you should find a copy in the
WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386 folder from the update to service pack 1 you can copy it from there to the system32 folder.

If you have not installed service pack 1 you can extract the file from your windows CD as follows
click start and select run
type in msconfig
Click ok
click expand file
enter the appropriate information for name, source (windows CD) and destination (windows\system32) and click expand

You may need to search the windows CD to locate the file just use the name without the extension as compressed files tend to have
the last letter of the extension replaced by an underscore. Entering mscoree into search will find either mscoree.dll or
mscoree.dl_

"C:\Program Files\Common

\DotNetInstaller.exe" cannot access a necessary
file, "mscoree.dll."
.
Norton's website says to ignore the mscoree.dll message,
it is a known issue with Windoctor,
Or option #2 go to windows update and install the dot net
framework.

Error: "Missing file: 'C:\ . . . \DotNetInstaller.exe'
cannot access a necessary file . . ." after running
WinDoctor

Situation:
You see the following message after you run a WinDoctor
diagnostic scan from within Norton SystemWorks:

Missing file: "C:\Program Files\Common
Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0700\Intel32
\DotNetInstaller.exe" cannot access a necessary
file, "mscoree.dll."

Solution:
This message can safely be ignored. InstallShield is not
really trying to use the file DotNetInstaller.exe
without .NET Framework being installed. The
DotNetInstaller.exe file is merely cached in the engine
location for future use.

Follow the steps below to ignore the problem reported in
WinDoctor.

To prevent Norton WinDoctor from repairing the problem

Open Norton WinDoctor.
If the Norton WinDoctor Wizard does not start
automatically, then in the main Norton WinDoctor window,
click Scan.
In the Norton WinDoctor Wizard window, select "Perform
all Norton WinDoctor tests (recommended)."
Click Next.
When WinDoctor has finished checking your system, click
Next to examine the results.
Click Finish.
In the main Norton WinDoctor window, click the Problems
button.
Under Problems Found, click the problem for the missing
file, mscoree.dll.
Right-click the problem for the missing file, then click
Problem Details.
Under Details, right-click the entry you want ignored,
then click "Ignore Selected Problem."
Click Repair All > Yes to continue.
Exit Norton WinDoctor.

Each time you run Norton WinDoctor, this problem is
ignored.

Technical Information:
InstallShield installs DotNetInstaller.exe as part of its
engine files, which is a .NET application that is used
when a setup is installing .NET assemblies.
DotNetInstaller.exe will not work on systems that do not
have the .NET Framework, but the file is cached with the
InstallShield engine files just in case it is needed in
the future when the .NET Framework is installed.
WinDoctor recognizes DotNetInstaller.exe as a .NET
application that depends on the .NET Framework and
reports its findings. WinDoctor's findings are
technically correct, but InstallShield always checks for
the Framework before trying to use it

Not sure what the "DotNetInstaller" is, but my computer
kept freezing up. I ran Ad-aware and this
program "NewDotNet" was in my registry keys. It took me
3runs to get it out. Everythings been fine since.
