Title: can't execute
Post by: roj30 on September 21, 2009, 05:07:11 AM

Hi,
   I'm new to this forum, I'm trying to install adobe reader 9.1, but I'm getting an error message, showing win32 is not a valid application. This is happening after SP2 update. I rolled is back still getting the same error. It's not just Adobe, but any applications If I want to install. I scanned it, there is no virus. Hope someone can help me this matter.

Thank you and God bless

thanks guys, I found the problem, it was firefox preventing the download, the download automatically cancel when I try to download any binary files. I don't know why, but I change the download destination on firefox then it worked.   (|
