Problem installing plug-ins.

Ok, I keep getting messages like this when I try to install plug-ins.

"Couldn't open the file: 'C:\Program Files\Winamp\plugins\gen_AlarmClock.dll'".

It has happened with every plug-in I've tried so far. I am using Windows 7 Starter on an Acer Aspire. But this was not a problem with Windows XP on my old computer.

Maybe these are old plug-ins with compatibility issues. Have you looked for updates or tried installing them under Administrator mode? Right-click on the plug-in installer and choose the "run as administrator" option (if Windows 7 Starter provides that option).
