Hello,

Renaming the dll file was a solution suggested by a Windows XP SP2
user. Are you in the same situation? I didn't need to do that using
Windows 7.

About the execution of the bat file, could you please send us the
output? Did you experiment any other problems following the previous
steps?

I've responded you in the blog post too. But we can keep the question
in the list (it has a wider audience)
