Error 101 on Program Start

[Steve G]

I receive error 101 on program start-up. This is a
critical error, and occurs even after uninstall, and re-
install. Any ideas?

Hello,

If you've tried all the recommended solutions and still no
joy, try this - it finally worked for me (on Win 2000):

Go to the MAS install directory (typically C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Anitspyware)
Create a shortcut for dcasDTServ.exe.
Drag the shortcut into your Start Menu\Programs\Startup
Restart.

Good luck!
