Cannot load a desktop picture

[Phil Minor]

Every time I try to load a desptop theme i get an error :

Run a DLL as an App has encountered a problem and needs to
close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

IE has acted extremely weird for a while now. Since it is
near impossible to re-install IE (i've tried many times) .
Any help would be appreciated!.

Note: IE has acted very weird for me for quite a while now,
and I believe this is part of the problem.

Thanks,

Phil

"IE has acted extremely weird" is not a good description of your problem
and no one can help you without more information. Here are generic
troubleshooting steps for you to take:

1) Scan with current antivirus ("current" means a version not later than
2002 but using updated virus definitions); 2) remove spyware with
Spybot Search & Destroy (www.security.kolla.de) and Ad-aware
(www.lavasoftusa.com). Be sure to update these programs before running,
and it is a good idea to do virus/spyware scans in Safe Mode; 3) delete
temporary and Temporary Internet Files; 4) stop unnecessary services
programs from starting with Windows - see www.blackviper.com for
services info and www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_index.htm for programs
info - 5) look in Event Viewer for clues.
