New Install of XP - Menu Writer fails

I've done a complete reinstall of XP Pro. The first WA extension I installed, Menu Writer 2.04, won't run. I followed the advice about deleting the WinCacheFile but the problem persists.

Please see the attached screenshots. If I click 'No', then I receive another error message stating I canclled the script running. However, DW CS5 just locks up !

I don't want to install all the other WA extensions until I can get this one to run.

I will attach an updated WA_SitePreferences.js file. Try replacing the existing file and see if it works. The file should be located here:

WinXP

--C:\Documents and Settings\<Your User Name>\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\Shared\WebAssist\CSSMenuWriter\Library
-DWCS3
--C:\Documents and Settings\<Your User Name>\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration\Shared\WebAssist\CSSMenuWriter\Library
-DWCS4
--C:\Documents and Settings\<Your User Name>\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US\Configuration\Shared\WebAssist\CSSMenuWriter\Library

Win Vista

--C:\Users\<Your User Name>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\Shared\WebAssist\CSSMenuWriter\Library
-DWCS3
--C:Users\<Your User Name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration\Shared\WebAssist\CSSMenuWriter\Library
-DWCS4

(Please note that <Your User Name> Should be replaced with the User name you use to log into your computer)
