I've developped an application on VS2010, in Vb.net. All is working well on some computers, but some are throwing this error :

Could not load Microsoft.visualBasic.PowerPacks.

I've already encounter this eror, and copying the Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs.dll next to my .exe fixed the problem. Still, some users can't use the application, despite the dll next to the exe.

Any ideas ?

Ps: I'm in a AD domain, and i'm not one of the administrators, so no installation possible whatsoever. The framework 4.0 is all I got installed.
