I have been using NORTON systemworks for some years now with very little
trouble but, since I obtained ntl broadband and installed the appropriate
software i keep getting an error repeated 10 to 20 times every time I run
'one button checkup' .. Basically several applications are trying to find a
file "msver80.dll" .. I have searched my XP installation disk and all the
other software I can think of to no avail. Can you tell me where I can find a
copy of this file and where should I copy (or install) it to ??

But I am not quite sure what IT is ???

A Google search brings up nothing for msver80.dll. This is a good
indication that msver80.dll is some kind of malware. Update yor antivirus
software and run a full system scan. Do the same for what ever anti-spyware
applications that you have.

If you meant msver70.dll, that may have something to do with Norton.

There are no Microsoft .dll files that start with msver that I can find.

*Never* install any ISP's software.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Might be that the file is actually msvcr80.dll (not msver80.dll).

AFAIK:

This error usually is "caught" by NSW after a PC is updated with MS DotNET
Version 2.0.

The file is installed correctly in the appropriate directory:
Windows\WinSxS\x86_policy.5.2.Microsoft.Windows.Ne tworking.Rtcdll_6595b64144ccf1df_x-ww_c7b7206f

NSW gives the error because it thinks the file should actually be located in
the Windows\System32 directory.

You can either select "Ignore the problem" within NSW or simply copy (NOT
move!) msvcr80.dll to Windows\System32 directory. That will keep NSW
*happy*.

Or one can always *Ignore NSW* - a course of action deemed wise by many,
including yours truly.

Double check the file name on your NSW error list before doing anything. The
above suggestion is worthless if the file name is not msvcr80.dll.

Anything you do, you do at your own risk.

Sorry, the location directory for msvcr.dll should read this way:

C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a 1e18e3b_8.0.50727.42_x-ww_0de06acd

Maybe I do need glasses after all as my better half always gently suggests
from time to time.

You should listen to your "better half". You do need glasses!

Your correction itself apparently needs a correction: The first line should
read
".....msvcr80.dll....." and not as posted!

Many thanks, I think it must be me who needs 'new' glasses, you are quite
right about the file name, and I have completed the actions you suggested,
with favourable results - so far...

I appreciate your follow-up. I am glad my input (from my own experience,
actually) was of some help.

AFAIK: the msvcr80.dll is one of the Dynamic Link Library files that is a
component of MS Dot.NET v2.00, and thereby, presumably, of Windows itself. I
do not know the exact function, but Dot.NET uses it from the directory I had
pointed out earlier.

NSW however, expects all system files (or most of them at least) - including
such dlls - to be located within the default Windows\System32 directory
which is the *normal* location for most essential system files. Which is why
it comes up with the 20 or so instances where it tries to find "links" or
such to this file from MS Dot.NET pointing to the System32 directory. Which,
naturally, it does not. Hence those "errors" that it finds on a scan!

I am not dissing NSW but WinDoctor has a habit of labelling as an error
whenever it encounters such situations and apparently cannot (or will not)
recognize that such "missing" files do exist elsewhere!

Cheerio.

Thanks O'Great Avatar! I do appreciate, and somewhat enviously admire,
*your* eagle-eyed ocular capabilities!

Let's not discuss my potential future visit to an optometrist when we meet
over coffee tomorrow morning, OK?

Did you locate msvcr80.dll?

Copy it and paste a copy into the Windows\System32 folder to shut NSW up.
