I wonder if there isn't more to this story . . .

The article [Q235383] explains that this MSADOR15.DLL file is installed with Publisher 2000! Besides that, the DLL Help Database list 23 different version of this file issued by Microsoft on various media where when you own the media, it's a simple process of extracting it from a cabinet.

the copy downloaded said MS Publisher XP instead of MS Publisher 2000. And after extracting the file to windows system, it still would not install.
So much for trying to download a program illegally.
Will just stay with my old Publisher 98.
