Update Will Not INSTALL
Posted by Shari on August 19th, 2003


Update titled "DirectX 9.0b End user Runtime" will NOT
install on my system. Am using Windows 98 and first time
I have this problem. Get error message after partial
install saying "Action Cancelled.IE was unable to link to
the Web page you requested". 2836562. This has been
going on for days!!! Anyone else having this problem

Hi Shari - Try making these changes and see if your downloads will work
then.

The following is courtesy of Maurice Naggar, MVP and Kelly, MVP (slightly
modified by me):

First, be sure that your Date and Time including Zone are set correctly,
Then,

Go to Start/Run and type in: regsvr32 wintrust.dll (from Kelly)

Then: Here's the whole spiel for Trusted Sites in IE.

Internet Explorer > main menu /Tools/Internet Options >

Security Tab/ click on green icon Trusted Sites/click Sites button.
Click "Require server verification (https for all sites in this zone" to
clear the
selection.

In the "Add this Web site to the zone:" field, add these entries to list of
"Trusted Sites"
