HELP! installation file 01561415.CAB could not be found

Question:I was updating my computer from the Microsoft website. I already have the Windows XP, Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003 and the Small Business Edition 2003 as well. Then I got this message about the Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003 have an installation file error because it could not find this file:
installation file 01561415.CAB could not be found.
It keeps trying to install it even after I click cancel and after I restarted the computer, it won't let me know open any programs like Excel, etc.
Please someone tell me if I should repair it in my add/remove programs window or what I should do!

Answer 2:Thanks Mick,
I did a system restore and things seem to be better now, but how do I make sure to stop and reverse the 2007 Vista editions that seem to still be on my computer? For example, I can't access Microsoft Publisher anymore at all and in my programs list it shows it as Publisher 2007. How can I get my old Publisher back? That seems to be the only program that is like that and the rest are the same.
Any advise is much appreciated. thanks.

Answer 3:This is a Vista forum, not an Office  Newsgroup.
They are the Office experts at the links I gave you

You can do a Manual uninstall of the office 2007 Programs.

"How to manually uninstall the 2007 Office system if you cannot uninstall it by using the "Add or Remove Programs" feature"

You may then have to Uninstall/reinstall your earlier Office version, if you have problems.
