Having installed Vista upgrae (with some pain) the only real issue I have left is that at start up I keep getting an Update Manager Error Box appear saying an error occured type 5.

I followed the link which took me to this message below. However, Ive done all what it says and yet I still have the message appear at start up.

Can anyone tell me why I still get the message andhow Ican get rid of it forever. Is whats said below sound right - or maybe Im doing something wrong !!

Update Manager Error 5
Document ID: Q111009
Last Revised On: 6/30/2004

Problem
At the end of a software installation, the following error occurs:

-5 : "The operating system could not schedule Update Manager to start on system startup."
More Information
The error occurs because the application is unable to write to the registry during the installation. This prevents the Update Manager from running a scheduled (daily, weekly, or monthly) check for updates.

Fix
Reload the Update Manager from the command line.

Select Start > Run.
In the Open field, type:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\UpdateService\ISUSPM.EXE" -bootstrap

Press Enter. The Update Manager should start.
