Confused Viz 2005

Elliot · October 2nd, 2004

Hello,

I loaded a utility that measures the Temperature on my motherboard. Everytime I click on the icom that calls the temperature utility, the computer will call the VIZ 2005 installation sequence. The computer will request for Autodesk "VIZ 2005 CD1". If I press cancel several times (like three times) it will finally cancel the Viz 2005 installation routine sequence and it will load the temparature utility from Tyan. I think the computer is looking for a program called "VIZ.msi"

This is not the first time it happens. Does anybody knows why is this happening....? Why is Autodesk installation sequence is being activated by other softwares?

Thanks
Elliot

there is nothing wrong with viz, the bug is in your temp prog.

Mohamed,

I understand that as accurate, but how could I fix it from happening. When I first loaded the temperature utility program it was not doing that. It started doing that after I loaded a program called Spy Sweeper. Since then I unloaded Spy Sweeper but now my temp software it still calling and launching the MSI installer.

There is a lot of these articles on the internet. Even Microsoft takes some blame and have produce an utility called MSI Installer Cleaner. I also read that most responsible companies are no longer using the MSI Installer from Microsoft.

I don't know where to go from here.

Thanks
Elliot
