IE script errors

Guest

When I go into the Control Panel and open up User Accounts, I get the
following error:
IE Script Error
An error has occurred on this page.
Line:
Char:
Error:
Code:
URL:
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?

No matter what I answer to that question, it just hangs there at that point
and I have to log out (there isn't a process that I can End). This only
happens on two user accounts that I created not long ago. The main sys admin
account works fine. I'm also having other IE scripting errors on various web
pages with those two accounts.

A Windows help page suggested that I register some files (jscript.dll
nusrmgr.cpl mshtml.dll themeui.dll bscript.dll) using Regsvr32 at the cmd
prompt, but doing that returned the following error:
jscript.dll failed Return code 0x80004005

I'm running XP Home SP2.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks Kelly.
I gave that a try, and received this error message:
"mshtml was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found.
This file can not be registered."

Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced tab > disable showing script
errors and any script debugging.

That help page is nothing worth. "bscript.dll" is *not* a Windows file
and "mshtml.dll" cannot be registered anymore that way since IE7. Also,
"regsvr.32.exe" does not need to be performed from the command prompt
since that command line works via "Start > Run" as well.
but doing that returned the following error:

Well, that's not okay. Use the "Dependency Walker" (part of the "Windows
Support Tools" on your WinXP CD) and investigate that file in order to
find the cause. Or download the latest version from here:

Should read "regsvr32.exe".
