Do a search for your problem in google groups. Most of the answers on the
first page seemed to suggest it's a problem with windows themes. Try
changing your theme a couple of times then retry to open add/remove.
Post back with your results.
 
CheshireCat is right.
search google with the string "+xp +parser +410 +error".
This leads to a discussion thread in microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
I copied class_ss.dll and renamed it to shellstyle.dll (as described).
Now my system works
