Silly Windows error I keep getting

Hey everybody!
I am hoping at least one of you brilliant people can help me with this, I keep getting a error by the name of 2738, it's rather annoying. I get this when I am trying to install a few programs, for example Skype, and uninstall certain programs, like the Ask Toolbar. I have browsed the internet for a few hours now, trying various remedys but none seem to work. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I do need skype to talk to my Grandmother in Canada and the only things she knows how to use are Skype and Solitair.

TY ILY 5EVA in advance from Australia <3

Try running "regsvr32 vbscript.dll" in the command prompt.

I read to do that on the Skype Fourm, as well as other fourms, but alas, it didn't solve the problem. The Error persists in stopping me from installing Skype

Made a little progress with that, took longer for the error message to apear, after which skype opened and then stopped responding immediatly.

You could probably use something like FaceBook messenger or Twitter! (or text)
