Error: The ordinal 6880 could not be located in the DLL MFC42.DLL

After populating a new subfolder of My Videos with a bunch of AVI files, I
have stared receiving the following application error when I navigate to the
My Videos level folder.

Dismissing the dialog is followed by an apparent Windows Explorer crash and
restart.

I have done a system restore and I have attempted to replace the indicated
dll file. The issue persists.

OS is Win XP Pro SP2

Any help that doesn’t involve nuking the parent level My Videos folder and
my family’s home videos?

Thanks!

The WinXP file version 6.02.4131.0 *has* the ordinal 6880. Therefore,
you've installed poor software installing an older version of that system
file. If you're lucky, that copy was installed in a program folder and
can be deleted. When done, re-register the WinXP system file:
Start > Run: regsvr32 %SystemRoot%\System32\MFC42.DLL

Great catch! It looks like DiviX 6.7 was causing the problem. Removing it
and reregistering MFC42.DLL appears to have solved the problem.

Thanks!
