Just as a follow-up if anyone ever sees this the problem is that your XML parser is outta wack. I was going to check and see if there was a windows update for my server and when I went to the sight it mysteriously came up with a XML 3.0 parser error and had directions to go to the download search for XML parser 3.0
9latest at my time was SP4 and install it. After installing instillation went fine one gripe I have is the status bar didn't do anything again but I suppose I could live with that
