I just downloaded and installed WAMP, when I open it I get a warning box that

Aestan Tray Menu has stopped working -"A problem has caused program to stop working correctly. Windows will close program and notify you if a solution is found".

I have tried the usual solutions : I checked the IIS and it is already disabled. And I also unchecked the "use port 80..." option in Skype.

Can anyone help me out with this?
