Alchohol 52% vista problems
Ok so i downloaded alchohol 52%, an iso mounting/burning program. When i downloaded it it told me i needed to restart my computer in order to continue the installation. When i did tons of problems happened!!! First off flash player stoped working in IE and when i tried to look at a youtube video it said i didnt have it. So i tried downloading it from the Adobe website. I clicked download but nothign happened (i did agree to the terms and conditions). Then i tried downloading it form a website directly from a 3rd party website, when i did that it started to install but failed and gave me a error message saying (the windows installer service could not be accessed. this can occur......). Also my desktop icons are re-arranged to the left part of my desktop screen. I tried right clicking and unchecking auto-arrange, ect.... still re-arranges them when i reboot or refresh. Below are the pictures of what is happening.

My gusse is it was the Alchohol 52% program that changed some registry keys ect... or it could be something completely different.



PLZ HELP!!!!!

Yes, I have the exact same problem as yours, try the other browsers like firefox,opera, etc. I have seen this kind of issue for IE7. It works for me, Hopefully it will work for you
