If the above doesn't fix your problem, try this as well:
If the directory "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network"
does not exist, you will get this error.
%ALLUSERSPROFILE% is normally "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users"
To verify existence/create this folder, you can do like this:
Press Start/Run, and fill in this:
"%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft"
Press OK, and the Microsoft folder should open.
If you do not see a sub folder with the name "Network" there,
create it, using File\New --> Folder and then enter Network
