Guest Ron Badour Posted August 1, 2007 Posted August 1, 2007 Re: trying to run stinger This is generally a sign that the file corrupted during the download. Continue downloading until you get one that works. Or, try downloading with another computer and then transfer it to your computer. -- Regards Ron Badour MS MVP 1997 - 2007 "Loveembirds" <Loveembirds@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:23BDE477-22C3-4B4A-B641-BA82EB251B49@microsoft.com... > Hi guys, > > downloaded ( least I tried, "thought" it worked ) Stinger from the McAfee > Site & saved to desktop. > When I try to run it - no can do- says Stinger.exe is not a valid Win > 32 > application. > Running Xp Sp 2 here. > > Thanks if you can help. > > Loveem

Also try this: Fix File Associations. Run the .exe fix. http://dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm -- Joe =o)
