Default mscomm.32 problem with vista?

Morning,
I have just been able to download the concole unlocker! Only problem now is I have a "mscomm32.ocx problem.
The net says that microsoft does not use mscomm32.ocx in vista, do we have any ideas to get the unlocker to work?
Thanks.

Download the OCX file(s), put it in the C:\WINDOWS\System32 directory, go to start, and where it says search, type "regsvr32 name.ocx", minus the " (substitute "name" for the OCX file name you are trying to resigter) and press enter. If you did everything correctly, you should get a confirmation dialog .

Use another OS, sorry but that the best bet.

I'm running windows 7 and it works for me.

Just put the console unlocker file, MSCOMM32.OCX and the MSWINSCK.OCX (of which you can get by going in the Private FTA section/some download links/cable modems/Ambit specific and download the file Ambit250.Console.Hack) in the systems 32 folder, and run it from there.

Before that though, you need to download and install Microsoft Visual J#® 2.0 Redistributable Package – Second Edition (x86).. you can get this from the microsoft site

Sorry its a bit long winded, would have been better to put a link up, but i'm not aloud yet!! Not enough posts!!!

Hope this helps
