hmm, i'm afraid the only chance you'll have to come arround this, exists 
in replacing the broken file directly by its working successor. Which means:

- Look on your harddisk in the directory which contains hecmd.sty . In 
case you've choosed the standard installation you should find it in

C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7\tex\latex\arabtex

- Create a backup of the old hecmd.sty by renaming it (i.e. to 
hecmd.ori) and copy the new hecmd.sty in the directory named above.

Good luck - Thomas
