Default OE6 troubles - can not open a simple .pdf attachment

Hello all..
after having some difficulties a month ago and having to reset IE7 back to
original setup....and then installing Acrobat 9.3....my .pdf's as email
attachments in OE6 will no longer open, tho I can save to the desktop and
they open up fine using the new Acrobat 9.3

when I do just try to open up the attachment, I get a modal window that
simply states the same "this file does not have a program assoc...." etc and
go to Folder Options to set that up. Been there and done that like 5 times
and STILL can not just open up a .pdf attachment.

googled for same and have re reg'd all the various .dlls needed, except for
some reason the mshtml.dll gives me this error "mshtml.dll was
loaded but the dll register server entry point was not found. This file
cannot be registered."

so can someone offer why that might be and how do I now fix that?
