Runtime Error 217 with Activesync

[Guest ONLawson]

I got myself an M2000 recently (sweet) and installed Activesync, and now get the following error messages on startup (not so sweet).

The following programs helpfully tell me they have encountered a problem and have to close:

Taskmanager32.exe

Cablemodem.exe

Notify-alert.exe

Printermanager.exe

I click on Send Error report and get four of the following error messages:

Runtime Error 217 at 00413E5E

Typically Microsoft doesn't provide tech support for Activesync!

Can anyone help me out of my misery?

O. :cry:

What makes you think this is an ActiveSync Error? Have you installe anything else (probably written in Delphi?)

I could be wrong but I don't *think* this is an activesync error - IMHO it's either coincidence or installing AS has triggered a problem in another program.

I've got exactly the same set of errors each time I restart my PC.

I'm not sure if I have any effects apart from messages.

Checks for a virus found nothing. (Norton Internet Security - Definitions up to date)

I have not installed ActiveSync.

I do keep getting a problem with explorer.exe hogging the CPU, wondering if you were experiencing the same?

Definetley a virus check for all files dated 08/01/2005 that are 740KB.

you will find the offending files all over your PC, in the root of C in allusers/startup etc.

I deleted them all seems OK now.
