When I try and open an Adobe file (Adobe 6.0) Windows Messenger 5.0 attempts
to install itself??? Here is the error message that follows:
"An error occured during the installation of assembly component
{874793FC-5f43-496A-8FE7-18C4DB9B143D}. HRESULT: -2147024864.
I've searched the machine for this file and I can't find it. Can anyone help?

Greetings,

To correct this, click Start,then Run, and type the following:
msiexec /x {C3A6819F-62D3-4750-AF1C-28206DDF2C2E}
then click OK.

Then, after uninstallation, reinstall Windows Messenger 5.1 from:
