I'm running XP SP3, IE7, OE6, all up-to-date. Several days ago OE6 worked

Recently, I have installed and unistalled some programs. One of them must
have affected my OE6 and/or the registry. [I have a multiple anti-malware
protection, so I rule out any infection, also because I do scans daily.]

When trying to open any attachment in sent or received e-mails, nothing
happens. When trying to save attachments, I get this message:
"There was an error saving one or more of the attachments" [The other
part
of the message is not copied since it is irrelevant with my huge free
disk(s) space and 3 GB memory.]

I have googled for the above phrase in quotes, found several pieces of
advice for folks who reported the same problem, followed some of them,
including the advice at
http://forums.techguy.org/web-email/...k-express.html.

While the other files suggested on the above forum for re-registration
did
register successfully, the following 3 files have failed to register for
various reasons:

regsvr32 shdocvw.dll
regsvr32 msjava.dll ("module could not be found")
regsvr32 mshtml.dll

Multiple instances of all of the above suggested files do exists on my
PC.

I have not followed precisely what
http://forums.windrivers.com/showthread.php?t=75634 advise (since I have
IE7). Instead, I downloaded ie6setupOe.exe, latest available, 497 KB,
from
http://download.softpedia.ro/dl/0642...ie6setupOe.exe,
did NOT want to make any modifications to the registry, and then I tried
to
run ie6setupOe.exe with the "q" switch, but installation did not proceed.

I have not tried to run IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe (Version 6.2.29.0 (Oct
'07)) since I have all updates and installation (of the older files)
might
not succeed.
Neiher have I followed the advice at

I'm afraid that I have to give up at this stage and must seek advice of

Thank you in advance for a problem-solving piece of advice.
