Tall Guy, I've had a similar problem (running Vista) which was due to the fact that Windows Vista silently failed to overwrite C:\wubildr.
Possible solution: Download wubildr again to your Desktop/Downloads folder first, and only then copy it over C:\wubildr using Explorer. You should get an User Account Control prompt this time asking you for permission to do that.
