I have tried this fix, but I'm stil not able to install MS
XML Parser update; I get an error unable to locate windows
installer service. I am not operating in the safe mode
while doing this update. Also my IE 6.0.2800 will not open
any linked windows either. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
 
sounds like youre microsoft installer is hosed, try this to fix it:

net stop msiserver
pop in an XP cd and expand the following three files to
%systemroot%\system32 and \system32\dllcache
msiexec.ex_
msi.dl_
msihnd.dl_
msiexec /regserver
net start msiexec
