Thanks, that gets me a little further, however now I get the following. I
don't know what could be referencing this, I'm pretty sure this assembly is
the highest on the food chain, and should have nothing referencing it. At
least none of my other GAC'd components do...

C:\Lib>gacutil /uf Eai.Utils
