Thank you Pat for you assistance. With some fear of exposing myself to ridicule, or at least providing a laugh to some out there, I need to explain what happened. I have been in the IT world since the early 60's,I actually had an ARPANet account. With a long background in computers I tend to accept instructions on problem fixing literally. I made a rookie mistake by taking instructions too literally.
The program msicuu.exe is not the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, it is the installer for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. I had assumed for some time that when I ran msicuu.exe it installed and ran the cleanup utility. It finally dawned on me today that it was not running the cleanup, only installing it. When I actually ran the Windows Install Cleanup from the Start Menu it cleared the problem.
I hope this is some help to any others that made the same mistake.
