Hi Thomas,

Hmm, that's a new one. Can you please uninstall any copies of pgAdmin that
you have installed, and then confirm that the C:\Program Files\pgAdmin2
folder has been removed.

Next, please check that Highlightbox.ocx is no longer anywhere on your PC
(it normally lives in C:\windows\System). If it is, before removing it, try
unregistering it with (from the Start -> Run box):

regsvr32 /u C:\Path\To\Highlightbox.ocx

Once you are happy that pgAdmin is *completely* removed, then please try
re-installing 1.1.34 (forget about 1.1.28 - the error you have is unlikely
to be caused by a specific version of pgAdmin).

Please let me know how you get on.

Regards, Dave.
