Recommended Posts

Hi, my name is Alex and i have a problem when i try to use the search

assistant either from the start menu or from the standard button in "my

computer". When i select it, it displays the bar from the search assistant

but instead of showing all the options, it only displays a grey space and in

the section where it´s supposed to show the title of the window, it shows the

text "Search Companion".

 

Can anybody help me, i would appreciate that a lot.

 

Thanks.

Re: Unable to use the search assistant

 

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/831430/en-us

Several dialog boxes are blank

 

If that doesn't help, then click Start, Run and enter each of the following

commands, as shown. You should receive a response for each that the DLL or

OCX file was registered successfully.

 

regsvr32 wshom.ocx

regsvr32 jscript.dll

regsvr32 urlmon.dll
