Well yes I have restarted my webserver, and the php.ini file is under the "windows directory" (shown in phpinfo page) and I am definatelty editing it. The current value for my include_path is ".;c:\php\includes" which is different to whats showing up on the phpinfo page and also the error that is coming up. The wierd thing is I can change anything else in the php.ini file and it updates on the phpinfo page. Just not the include_path attributes. Its as if I am not changing the correct service as there is nothing in the php.ini file that relates to the directory ".;c:\php4\pear". I am running xppro, IIS, php 4.3.2 Any other ideas??

OK; '.;c:\php4\pear' is the default value for include_path, so PHP is not seeing your edited php.ini. Let's try a couple of basic questions (forgive me if these are obvious to you, but you haven't covered them in your message): 1) Did you restart your Web server after editing php.ini? 2) Where does the phpinfo() output say your php.ini file should be (look at the "Configuration File (php.ini) Path" entry right near the top)? And is your php.ini there? If the answer to both of these is yes, and you're still having problems, get back to the list with some more detail and maybe someone will have some other bright ides.
