When I tired to upgrade my browser to IE 8, I recieved the following error message: The procedure entry point SHRegGetValueW could not be located in the dynamic link library SHLWAPI.dll. Any thoughts on what I should do? Thanks.

Pray.

It is called "DLL Hell".

There is a slim chance I could help, but what is your previous browser, your OS version and do you have all the updates for it?

IE 6, XP home, and yes. What does this error message mean?

It means a DLL is missing. This makes sense now. Upgrade to IE7 first.

A DLL is a (Windows specific) shared library so that many programs can use it. If it is missing, that program cannot normally run.

Of, if you don't want to spend lots of money on a limited system, just download http://www.ubuntu.com/

If one wants Safari for Windows: http://www.apple.com/safari/

If one wants the best browser: http://www.opera.com/

Strive, not for what is acceptable, but for what is greatest.

I don't pretend to know everything, but I don't pretend to not know what I know I know, so I know what I know and I like people who agree with what I know I know, and I'm indifferent to differences of opinion on what I know I don't know.

This is old and you've probably fixed the problem by now, but in the future if you get error messages you can just Google the message word-for-word, and 99 times out of 100 you'll find a solution on the first page of hits. People rarely have unique problems with Windows' systems.

It is my solemn and firmly held belief that the Cristeros were an entirely unjustified group of egomaniacal sociopaths and that Mexico would be a far better place today had they simply purchased Xbox360 consoles and lived out their ridiculous fantasies via an imaginary fantasy gaming realm

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold/ All that you need, is in your soul/ And you can do this, oh baby, if you try/ All that I want for you my son/ Is to be satisfied

Quote from: Old Crow Medicine Show
All that we are is a picture in a mirror, with fancy shoes to grace our feet. All that there is, is a slow road to freedom; Heaven above and the devil beneath. We're all in this thing together, walking a line between faith and fear, this life won't last forever - when you cry I taste the salt in your tears.

Reinstall.

Windows is not meant to be useful; it is meant to make you dependent and siphon off your money and time.
