After downloading FF latest version which requires restart to finish, the new vs. just will not load. Everytime I try to open the FF Icon, I get the same restart required window. My PC runs WinXP, XP suggested the following:

Resolutions 1. Register the following files Click Start. Choose Run. In the Run box, type regsvr32 Softpub.dll. Click OK. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the following files: Wintrust.dll, Initpki.dll, Mssip32.dll.

For more information on this issue and alternate resolution please click on the Microsoft Knowledge Base link below.


First command was fine, the remaining 3 all open up FireFox popup window requiring restart.

it appears the FF update damaged or failed to load these dll links.

how do i fix it? I hate having to use IE.

The program must close to allow a previous installation attempt to complete

Check and tell if its working.

thanks mha, but that did not work, the search never found the any xpicleanup.dat files. also, i am familiar with the please close any open files to complete the install, but this time I never got that prompt ("may" explain why the search did not locate any clenup.dat files).
