For the last 2 days I've had quite a few emails regarding this error.
After a lot of scrounging around the net, and some help from a
SigZag user, I think I've found the solution to this problem.  I have
found out that this is a `Catch All' error - which REALLY!!
is not at all usefull.  But some more searching tends to point
towards one file.

Download the fix at:
 http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Marina/4942/update.zip  55 KB
and follow the instructions in the readme.

This has worked for those who've tried it... but because of the nature
of this error I can't guarantee it'll work.  If it doesn't, email
me because I know 2 other files which are apparently suspect. 

Regards,
James Dill

PS: Just on a put-the-blame-on-someone-else note, I'd like to 
mention this isn't a programming bug on my end :)  I put the
blame squarely on Micro$oft for bringing out new versions of 
files which are NOT backwards compatible!!! ;)
