Hi, I`m having a problem with (supposedly) the Windows Installer application:
whenever an security update or a msi requiring executable is run, the
directory c:\windows\inf (and - as this is Windows ME - \restore\temp) is
fillied up with thousands of 0kb files. These files are named "oem00001.inf,
oem00002.inf, oem00003.inf, ... oem99999.inf". No error message displays,
however, the system is virtually halted as processing of all these files
takes all resources of the system. Tried to reinstall InstMsiA.exe but the OS
says that this service already exists. Any hints would be helpful. Thanks.
