Well, I'm back. I've had to do the Recovery thing again. IE7 refused to work with no solutions found for 2 days. And now Event Viewer has these Errors & Warnings!

Nothing really unusual...
Jun 21, 2007 12:18AM PDT

Honestly, that event log isn't unusual. While you never want errors to occur, it's how they're handled that really matters. You could have tens of thousands of errors and warnings in Event Viewer, but if Windows was able to overcome them and seamlessly hide them from you there's not much to worry about. In this case a small error occurred while installing new software, which is fairly common, and can be ignored.

As to the IE7 issue, is that still occurring? If so, start a new thread detailing the problems you've been encountering with it, including any exact error messages, if applicable.

RE: My Event Log Issues & IE7
Jun 21, 2007 5:45PM PDT

Thank you so much! All those Warnings & Criticals had me worried. Especially when it include bleeding Registry Handles! Didn't seem like a Healthy thing for PC to do!!

I will post info about IE7, I think it has been my culprit! Not the Vista or my ISP.
