New Dell and Sonic Update Manager

Brand new Dell Dimension 1100; after removing a bunch of the bundled software, I kept getting a Windows Installer message after bootup asking for the Sonic Update Manager disk.  "1" was listed in the "look in"/disk location.  The solution can be found here:  http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=sw_other&message.id=48777&view=by_date_ascending&page=2

Which points to the following:  http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q111006

I just downloaded and ran the first program listed.  Then ran the second program listed on the installshield.com web page.  The message never reappeared since....
