Anyone knows how do deal with this problem? -- All good things come to an end, finally

Guest MarcBo Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Didn't help.As you thought no WUWebControlClass in Vista. I found MUWebControlClass in WindowsXP(on a different computer) but that is not in Vista either. Any other suggestions?
