Thanks for replying.

I have Vista 64bit SP2.

I went to the site link you provided but Windows Search 4.0 for Vista 64bit is only for people with SP1.  I downloaded it anyway but upon install it said "this is not for your version of windows."

I may try to reinstall Poser 8.  But the first time I installed it, I clicked continue when the Vista UAC prompt came up.  I followed the same procedure I do for all of the applications I've installed in Vista.......Are you sure?....Yes....Are you sure?.....Yes Continue.  And occasionally it asks me to unblock something and I always click Unblock.

Thanks for you help.
