Spyware, viruses, & security forum: Ad-Aware 2007 Won't Install

"How do I resolve the "Error 1722" problem?

This problem relates to the MSI installer from Microsoft; it is associated with either an outdated or corrupt Windows Installer or with permission for Windows Script Hosting (WSH).

First of all, download the latest version of Ad-Aware from the Support Center or https://secure.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php and reinstall. You may also update the software from the 'Web Update' menu in Ad-Aware 2007. Click the 'Update' button to connect to the update server and download the updates. Restart Ad-Aware and Ad-Watch to activate the changes.

CONFIGURING WSH PERMISSIONS

Warning: Do not try to edit registry keys if you are unfamiliar with the Windows Registry. Attempt this only at your own risk; Lavasoft does not take responsibility.
In the Windows Start menu, open run and type 'regedit' in the command line. Click 'Ok'.
Check for either or both of the following registry keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings\Enabled
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings\Enabled

If either of those has a DWORD value of '0', then scripting is disabled. Changing the values to '1' should enable scripting."

Please note: Ad Aware and Ad Ware are not the same animal. GOOGLE search brings up Ad Ware at the top --sponsored-- part of the page. You think this is what you want; it isn't!!! The actual items searched for appear below the advertisements. There you will find Ad Aware

So I went to remove all traces from add/remove,search & registry.
Remember what yor parents said: "The first will be last and the last, first?" update definitions NO second was the other one: YES.

It went back to upating defintions that way! Darrell
