Yup..

On the thing with using common libraries, WHY DO IT?
I don't care how big the install is, I would rather have it sitting 
in it's own little corner with all it's own .ini files and DLL files, 
so that I know that it's going to work tomorrow.

Thing is though, it comes and goes,  like it just did for you, so I 
suspect registry more than I do the DLLs.
