Although this is not mentioned in the istallation rules it turns out to be a good idea for a great many users.
Before installing Hal: turn off all anti-virus software and/or firewalls, as in  some cases these have prevented good installs for various people from time to time.
Also I don't think you mentioned what operating system you computer runs on. To my knowledge Hal does not run on Apples, Unix, Linex and a few others. It will run on Vista if given permission by the Administrator program first. Maybe you have found another problem source, in fact it  might even be a graphics problem stopping the entire program from running.
Just trying to be helpful, not critizing.

Sorry forgot to mention... Yes I am running Vista x32. I am the only user of this laptop. And I have tried to run Hal normal and as Admin.
I do believe you are correct that it is a graphics issue. I believe that the file is corrupt or missing on my pc. But as I said, I have manually added all msinet.ocx, and even run different install programs that should clear the issue up and it has not... any other ideas? If nothing else, I can always reformat... EEEWWW!! lol. Bill, thank you for the help. I did not mean to sound rude. Am just very frustrated at this whole thing. Thank you so much for the help.

I suggest that you goto the top of this page and start reading as your problem was answered there by another person with the same problem.

Really... I really don't mean to be rude but, if the above mentioned post had fixed my issue I would not be asking for help. And maybe I should have been a bit more specific. I am new to Hal but not new to PC's and forums. I would not have posted on here if I had not already read and followed above postings. As well as many other forums on the subject. None of which seemed to help. I have actually been trying to install and use Hal for months. I just now purchased it. I have even reformatted my hard drive and started fresh. Un-installed and installed... ect. Still nothing. Are there any other ideas? I have manually installed all MSINET.OCX as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am new to Hal, I have been trying to download the free version so that I can use the code that I was given after purchasing the full version. I keep getting a message that says "Component 'MSINET.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid". I cannot get Hal to open. Can someone please help me with this issue?
