Hi,
Please Help!!! .... Every time I use 'search' and I'm using the 'all
folders and files' my computer activates the 'windows installer' and trys to
install windows office 2000 premium. This is very annoying. The problem has
only been happening since I upgraded to Windows XP SP2. I am having no luck
in locating a solution.
Can any of you wonderful people help me to get rid of this problem?
