Solved wow64win.dll missing error in Windows 7 Enterprise OS (Rev: 1.0)

When trying to run Microsoft Word from the Microsoft Office 2003 Professional software in a Windows 7 Enterprise x64 Operating System (OS), a "wow64win.dll is missing" error prompt occurred. A search for the wow64win.dll in the Windows 7 Enterprise x64 OS failed to locate the wow64win.dll in the system. As a result, a lot of other errors (for examples: cannot open Microsoft Internet Explorer, cannot repair or uninstall the Microsoft Office 2003 Professional software, cannot run any setup program, etc) occurred.

Solution

Copy the C:\Windows\System32\wow64win.dll (361,984 bytes, version 6.1.7600.16385) from another workable Windows 7 Enterprise x64 OS and paste the workable wow64win.dll to the C:\Windows\System32 directory of the problematic computer. After that, restart the computer and performed a update of all the Windows 7 Enterprise x64 OS patches and also the Microsoft Office 2003 Professional software patches.


Reference

[1] Errors may occur when you run a 32-bit program on a computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003 or on a computer that is running Windows XP Professional x64 Edition

Unpleasant website subscription encounter with Network Solutions (Rev: 1.0)

I subscribed to Network Solutions (charge US$89.62 for 1 year plan) to setup a website on 23/4/2010. From 23/4/2010 (Friday) to 24/4/2010 (Saturday), I had problem securely transferring my files (using Ws_FTP Pro and Adobe Dreamweaver CS4) to their server using the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) . Hence, I decided to cancel my subscription on 25/4/2010 (Sunday) by login to their website to submit my request (request no: #1-462076725).




Bernadeth001 from Network Solutions responded to my cancellation request on 28/4/2010 (Wednesday) requesting me to submit a pre-authenticated service request that required me to login to their website to submit the cancellation request again.



I did it on 28/4/2010 or 29/4/2010 (if I remember this date correctly as I successfully submitted online but did not received their acknowledgement email for that submission ?). I was still charged US$89.62 for the Network Solutions subscription on my credit card bill. Interest charge was imposed because I did not pay for the Network Solutions subscription on my credit card bill.

As I received no response from the Network Solutions, I email Network Solutions on their email address customerservice@networksolutions.com on 7/5/2010 to ask about my cancellation status but the email failed because it is not an active email address. I realized that the only way to communicate with Network Solutions is either to login to their website and submit their online form, or call their support number which I did not try because of the oversea call charges.

Hence, I login to Network Solutions website again on 7/5/2010 to send my request for the update status of my cancellation request. 1 month plus had passed, I still received no response from Network Solutions.

"Our Customer Service Specialists will investigate your inquiry and send you a response within 1 business day." This "...response within 1 business day" promise from their acknowledge email seems like a joke to me.


Another unpleasant experience was that Network Solutions keeps sending their advertisement email to me despite that I had send my unsubscribe request online (http://www.networksolutionsunsubscribe.com/) twice to them.
