Reinstall/Repair of XP Service Pack 2??

[Guest]

After recent security updates, I am having issues with Internet Explorer,
Outlook Express, and Windows Explorer. Microsoft website says, for repair of
IE/Outlook Express issues with XP Service Pack 2, to reinstall SP2. Any
advice here? Do I need to uninstall first or can I install over top? What
issues am I likely to encounter?

Perhaps the following will solve your issue:

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell
after you install security update MS06-015

Easy Fix: Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and scroll
down to Item No. 383 "Hewlett-Packard's Share-to-Web software - Fix (MS06-015)"
to download a registry fix.

Note: You may need to temporarily disable your antivirus program
in order to safely run the scripted fix.

Also, review the following:
