I noticed that I was having a lot of failed redirects for flamingcube.com for this file. I decided to find the old archive and repost the information. For history's sake, here it his. These instructions are pretty long, so it might be worth printing them out.
Here's the Fix:
- start computer (safe mode is not necessary)
- make a double rum and coke
- drink very fast then make another
- ok now for the fun part
- click start then run then type cmd and click ok.
- type the following line verbatim
- taskkill /im wuaumqr.exe /f
- the system will tell you that the task at whatever pid that is was loaded has been terminated.
- type exit
- launch windows explorer
- goto c:\documents and setting\all users\startmenu\programs\startup
- remove dcom.exe
- get another rum and coke we are just getting started
- run regedit
- click on my computer
- press control f (for find)
- type winsock2
- erase any setting that points to wuaumqr.exe only erase files that point to "wuaumqr.exe all other files are ok
- go back to top, click on my computer and press control f
- type wuaumqr.exe
- delete anyfiles that point to this location
- go back to my computer and press control f
- delete any files that point to dcom.exe (if any)
- get rum and coke, smoke cigarette
- exit registry
- click start then run the type msconfig and press enter
- uncheck the box pointing to wuaumqr.exe
- click apply then exit msconfig (ok)
- rum and coke
- click start then run the type cmd and press enter
- type cd\windows\system32
- type attrib wuaumqr.exe -h
- type del wuaumqr.exe
- type cd\
- type dir download_me.exe /s
- if this file exist on your computer goto that directory and type line 37
- attrib *.* -h -a -r
- type del.
- type cd\
- get rum and coke
- type dir dcom.exe /s /a
- if this file exists goto that directory and repeat steps 37 - 39

Here's a quick write-up of my electric exhaust cutout installation. I did the installation at my parents house in Georgetown with my dad. When I say "I did" I probably really mean "we did" it - or better yet, he did it. I got the cutouts from Dave Hacker at DMH Performance .
Here's a picture of where I installed the button. It's the round button right above the T/C button (which is right above the center console compartment). It looks factory, so it's kinda hard to see unless you know what you are looking for.
I ran the wires through the rubber shift boot, looking up from under the car - it's the white rubber part on top of the transmission. I did the whole installation without taking the cover for the shifter off, but I bet it would have been a hell of a lot easier if I took it off. I just put my hand up the side of the console to feed the wires and make the hole in the shift boot. I put my hand in the side of the console where you can see the wire hanging out in some of the pictures. I centered the switch above the T/C button and had to cut out part of the plastic so it would fit through. I took the top level plastic off, drilled a pilot hole, then used a 3/4" bit to make the hole for the switch.
The default length of wire that comes is extra long, so I just coiled it up under the center console. I had to extend the red power wire because I installed the switch right above the traction control (T/C) button and I wanted to pull power directly from the fuse box. I fed the power wire under the center console and up into the fuse box to a 20 amp fuse.
For the time being, I wired the black ground wire onto the bolt on the passenger seat closest to the console. There may be a good place to ground it under the console, but like I said I didn't take the console all the way apart.
There are many more pictures in the photo gallery eCutout album |
