No matter what software I download, run or save I get c:/documents and settings/Hubert/my documents/name of file.exe is not a valid win32 application.
For example I downloaded software direct from Microsoft like IE7 for a test as I already have the program installed, and when the program attempts to install, I get the above, IE7 file.exe is not a valid win32 application. The name of any file I try to install is shown and will not install, "says not a valid win32 application.
I am running Windows XP Home. I have no viruses and never had one, or any spyware. So please don't tell me I have a virus.
Safe mode, last good restart point, reboot from last good start point, fails to resolve the problem.
Please does anybody have any ideas how to resolve this problem.
All of my installed programs works fine, including automatic updates from microsoft and all other security. Computer runs fine, just unable to install anything.
Thanks in advance, Minddoctor.
