Re: Unable to update security in Vista
Hi
Thanks for your reply, but nothing in that archive seems to be an
authoritative solution. I've tried replacing the winhttp.dll file (the most
repeated solution) but there's one there already and I don't have
'permission' to replace it - those permissions seem to be unchangable. Any
other ideas would be appreciated!
