DAMAGED FILES Stopping JAVA from working

:confused Problem: I am unable to access a Pogo game site due to the following file preventing the Java Script from working:
C: Windows Downloaded Program Files
Type: ActiveXControl
Created: 11/2/2006 7:18 AM
Accessed: 10/7/2009
Total size: 0bytes (None)
ID: E2883E8F-472F-47B0-9522-AC9BF37916A7
Status: Damaged
Code Base: http://platformdl.adobe.com/NOS/getPlusPlus/1

The files on which the above referenced ID: E2883E8F.. depends :
C:Windows\System32\Downloaded Program..\GP.OCX* and C:Windows\System32\Downloaded Program..\GP.INF* are DAMAGED
The other file referenced in C:Windows\System32\ATL.DLL*

 

I am using Windows Vista Home Premium - 2007

Would your suggestions apply to this version also?

If so, regarding the Java, would I remove base (the original installation) along with the latest Java downloaded off Java site?

 

I deleted the Adobe and JAVA from my system, then reinstalled, but still no access to game - here is what the Java Console message states for not being able to access pogo games

Java Plug-in 1.6.0_16

Yes. Regardless of the OS remove all instances of Sun JAVA from ADD/Remove/Change.

Then carry on with the rest of the steps as advised by Halo. Cheers...

 

From the horse's mouth.
