Hi azspioke,
Try this open a run command and type:
regsvr32 /i shell32.dll click [OK]
Reboot your machine and see if the problem will reproduce itself or will go.
If still no luck try this KB:

HTH.
Please report back.

Thank you for the help but niether of them did any good.. I will leave the
register with the addition in 816665 because it was missing.
I did not restart XP-SR 2 after adding to the register, the 816665 made no
actions to restart. I also have tried reinstalling Srchasst,inf using
%window%\inf and it did no good.
It did reinstall Searech Companion thou.
