question #2 when i go to run microsoft up dates it says i have to be logged on as the administrator, well i am the administrator of my computer and i'm the only user.
Thank You for any help i can get

Are you running Microsoft Vista?

Try this: download the update program "msxml4-KB936181-enu.exe" from http://download.microsoft.com instead of Windows Update.

This may be the exact link:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyi...A2807&displaylang=en

Run the program and tell it to remove all.

Restart your computer run the program again to install it.

Then run the Windows Update file for "Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2".

After reboot, the icon shuld be gone.

when i install and go to program this comes up
"error opening installation log file, verify that the specified log file location exists and is writible."

OK, just for verification, you ran the uninstall, restarted the comsputer, then attempted to reinstall the program when the error message aggpeared?
