Looking to give the Enhanced Mailing Manger for ASPDNSF a try but don't have the time to do the install yourself? As many of my clients are consultants and programmers working for others, many find it easier to pay a small amount to have EMM installed right, the first time. Or perhaps you are a store owner and want to add EMM to your system but don't want to go back to the original programmers that built the site for you to implement this for you? Well, Exhibit A Communications has listened to your pain and come up with an answer for you. We now offer installation services as low as $75 per installation (when purchased at the same time as a license) or for $100 per installation for the trial version. Scratch that, during this introductory period, we are going to offer install services at the low $75 rate regardless of whether you purchase the license or not! In order to take advantage of this offer, you will first need to go to our BUY page for EMM and choose the payment option you are interested in. Then you would need to provide us with the following information: Domain Name (as define in AppConfig LiveServer value) to register EMM to The full URL to the admin section of the website A temporary administrative login/password to the admin section of website The Full URL for FTP access to the site (to upload files) An FTP login and password for the above URL. Once we have this information, and your payment of course, we can proceed with installing EMM on your behalf. Thoughts or questions? Please use the comments section below if you'd like the conversation carried on in public or you can always use our Contact Us page to send us private comments or questions.

I had one computer that I figured was just brain dead (I still think it is) and was never able to get to the bottom of why updates wouldn't install on it. I was blaming the computer (and it's previous owner). Well, I just experienced the same problem with another XP computer that prompted me to aggressively try and find an answer. I found the following on Tech Support Forums: I suggest you try this workaround for Windows Update issues... How to Repair the Windows Update Files. 1. Go Start > Run. 2. In the box type REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL > Enter. 3. A message saying, "DllRegisterServer in WUAPI.DLL succeeded" will appear > OK. 4. Now it is necessary to repeat these steps for each of the following files commands: Hit Enter after each line REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL REGSVR32 ATL.DLL REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL Once finished; since the temporary folder of Windows Update may be corrupted, please carry out the following steps to rename the folder: 1. Go Start > Run > in the box type cmd > Enter. Type the following command in the open panel. net stop WuAuServ (Please Note: the computer may need to be rebooted before the net stop command will work.) 2. Go Start > Run > type in the box %windir% > Enter. 3. In the opened folder, rename the folder ( by Right clicking) SoftwareDistribution to Sdold. 4. Go Start > Run > type in cmd > Enter. In the open command pane, please type: net start WuAuServ Once that’s done, Go Start > All Programs > Windows Updates and see if it will allow the downloading/installation of Windows Updates. This seems to have resolved the problem on the newer computer that was exhibiting this problem and so I thought I would share this with the world (of people that actually read my blog). Now to go attempt this on the lame computer we are using for our postage/shipping system... Wish me luck!
