Are you installing from a Office 2000 product? You must install Publisher from Disk
2...

Because your computer is sick and needs fixing - the reason why I thought
you were here

This will cure your ills and problems and make things better. Make sure you
give your computer a kiss!!!

You can get a program from the MS website called "msicu.exe" and there is a
second one required for Disk 2 of Office. Read the instructions with these
files carefully, and fully understand how they work, but they will/should
cure your ills.

Before re-installing Office and Publisher, download and install the new
version of the Windows Installer.
