Hi Rick,
Thanks for the info but I've updated the window installer and I've tried to
do what you said with the run command but what files do I delete from the
temp folders?

I have 3 files in there; Cookies History Temp Internet Files

Hi,

Click start/run, type %userprofile%\local settings\temp and click ok. Then
click edit/select all, then hit the delete key.
