In my ongoing quest to learn more about computers, i find myself to be a little dumber than i thought.
This computer once had kazaa on it. Ive uninstalled the software and Hkey. But yet when i download the current verion of Kazaa i get an error message when the installshield starts. this is the message : Unhandled Exception Error number: 0x80070725 incompatible version of the RPC stub.

I have no clue what this is... can someone please quide me thru this. also i am parting out some older computers to build 1 working one. are there any sites that may help me learn more about the total workings of computers.
Thank you ahead of time from a total braindead user.
Rob

Hey Rob.
This issue may be caused by any program that installs different versions of the Oleaut32.dll, Olepro32.dll, Asycfilt.dll and Stdole2.tlb files (and possibly others). This may create a mixed file version environment with files that are not compatible with each other.

See the following Microsoft Knowledgebase article Q321915 for details and solution:

As far as the inner workings of a computer, one of the most informative sites I've seen for just about anything (not just computer or technical stuff) is http://www.howstuffworks.com - I've spent hours here learning about tons of things.

Hope this info helps. Good luck.
