UPDATE
About 2 hrs ago, while in safe mode, I tried Running Avast! External Control and it worked like a charm. I was also able to install a program without any problems.
That meant that the culprit was something running at startup. The only program that was new was Prevx. After rebooting, I again ran RejZoR’s program and got the same error message.
I uninstalled Prevx, rebooted and no more problems.
What I can’t figure out is why no one else has complained about this. :o ??? ???
