After reformatting and reinstalling XP Pro I reinstalled various
applications including a download of Tweaku to revert to classic
search..Tthis worked fine. I then found that I had downloaded the Portugese
verssion of Windows Media Player in error and try as I may I could not get
rid of iit, I wa forced to use a restore point which lost me my classic
search. I again downloaded Tweaku but this time it refused to open. It keeps
telling me I need windows server ortp instal Service Pack. 1 This I had
already done but nevertheless installed it again but still the same message
Can anyone tell me how to open Tweak u please.

Sorry Wes am not quite with you on this, I downloaded Tweak U [U:I ] ??
from the site you referred to, I also checked the Tweak U guide which
included the item I want {change back to Classic search ] However I am
still informed that I cannot open this application as it requires Windowa
server 2003 or Service Pack 1..I have reinstalled SP1 so many times it is
dripping out of the cracks, but still no Joy. . I then tried to to remove
Tweaku in Add/rmove programs,When I selected Remove I got a lwrge empty
screen wth something like Remove Tweaku 32 .. at the top and just sat there.
I then found I could not get out of this situation and had to Reboot to get
back to normal. I have tried this three times now and TwekU is still in
the Desktop menu....
