=20 As computers become more and more susceptible to bugs, virus attacks
andot= her threats, the publishers of Softw= areDaily[1] and
HardwareDaily[2]h= ave started a new blog, c=
omputerdisasters.blogspot.com[3].
We are at present working on= a solution for the hundreds of users who have
been affected by problems ar= ising from attempting to install the Internet
Explorer 7 beta.This often re= moves functionality from a wide range of
programs, which are looking for tw= o new DLLs that the IE7 install should
have placed in the Windows/system 32= directory.
We have found a source for these files and at the pr= esent stage of our
quest for a solution we have found that downloading them= remedies some (but
not all) of the problems.We have provided Microsoft wit= h details of these
files and where they may be found, but they have refused= to distribute this
information, since IE7 is in beta and they do not provi= de technical
supportfor beta products.
However, a check with Go= ogle reveals the unprecedented extent of the
problems arising from this bet= a, and if Microsoft will not make solutions
available, then we must remedy = that omission. Hence this new blog.
Please let us know of any di= sasters you have suffered - and, hopefully, of
any solutions you have found= . You can post them as comments to postings on
this blog, or send them by e= mail to disasters@blueyonder.= co.uk[4].
We regret that we cannot enter into correspondence a= bout any such postings
which will be published "as is", with no guarantee o= f their veracity.In
this, as in all things regarding computers, extreme cau= tion is
recommended.
