I am a beginner, and have downloaded a programme on an imac computer called 'Regcure' as I have been getting 400 bad request messages after installing a paypal shopping cart. I tried to open the software and it read this program cannot be run in ms dos. Can some one explain what this means and what i can do to solve my problem of the bad request messages.

Registry cleaners are not that good, I would use System Restore tool (see Accessories, System Tools) to restore back to a point before using Regcure.

I suggest getting CCleaner instead from

So how are you trying to start it here?

On top of that it's not particularly great at fixing Windows Registry Problems so I wouldn't recommend it.

If you are using Windows 98 or earlier this is a DOS or [b]Disc Operation System[/b] and it doesn't support Reg Cure as it is just a Shell sitting on top of DOS and isn't what Windows has become.

As tot he error messages that you are getting what exactly are they and what OS are you using here?
