Check your temp folder assignment:
1. Right click on 'My Computer' and choose 'Properties'.
2. Click 'Advanced' and then 'Environment Variables'.
3. Change the temp variable to %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp.

NOTE: This actually showed to be correct on my system.

However, after pressing the OK button in the 'Environment Variables'-dialog
(instead of cancelling out) the value gets resaved.
This corrected my Error 101 issue and MS Anti-Spyware is now running fine!

HTH
Worth a try anyway.
 
Hi Baldy2,
I have gotten to Temp user variables and I have 2 lines

Temp c:\documents and settings\
ron1\local...
"" "" ""
"" ''
which one do i change or do i change both

Thanks for reply and effort you made to fix 101 error for the rest of us .
 
Hi Jessie,

I actually did nothing but pressing the OK button in the Environment
Variable Dialog (instead of Cancel). This resaved the existing values and did
it for me.
So, it may even work without changing your values as they are now.

Please note however that I am running XP Pro SP2.
