Hi,

I'm using win xp, and for some reason it stopped opening help file with *.chm extension. when trying to open I get the following error messege:

can't open file: mk:mad:MSITStore:{file name and path}

I tried both spybot and adaware - no help. even reinstalled IE but no luck.

any ideas ?

thanks,
Aric

For WinXP

Type this for WinXP insted in 'Start - Run'

regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\hhctrl.ocx

no really; what you need to do is to check the security properties for the chm, make sure you appear in it, and grant yourself all the rights available
