MDAC 2.10?

[Guest]

I'm distributing a VB.NET application that uses an Access database. It works
on most computers but on one install I got the following error when it tries
to use the database:

The .NET Data OLE DB Provider(System.Data.OleDb) requires Microsoft Data
Access Components(MDAC) version 2.6 or later. Version 02.10.3711.9 was found
currently installed.

On the MS web site it looks like 2.8 is the latest version, so I'm not sure
where the 2.10 version came from. When I tried to install the 2.8 it says it
is up to date.

I think at some version around 2.5-2.6, the latest version of the JET
engine DLLs (for accessing Access databases) were no longer shipped
with the regular MDAC install. Maybe this has something to do with it.

Sorry for vagueness,

Any idea how to get the latest Jet verison and install it?
