Zareba, please don't do that, lol. Try this
It sounds like the COM+ Catalog may have become corrupt. It can be
re-built with the following steps:
1. Reboot and start in Safemode
2. Open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and execute the following
commands:
* del %windir%\System32\~Clbcatq.dll
* ren %windir%\System32\Clbcatq.dll ~Clbcatq.dll
* del %windir%\Registration\*.* /s
3. Start the registry editor and delete the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Microsoft \COM3]
4. Reboot and start in Normal mode.
5. Open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and execute this command:
rmdir /s %windir%\Registration
6. Open the Control Panel and double click Add/Remove Programs
7. Select Add/Remove Components and click Next and it will reinstall
COM+
8. Go to Windows Update and re-apply the necessary service packs and
updates for COM+.
