some of xp's functions have all of a sudden stopped working. Here is a partial list:
In Internet Explorer, when I click on tools/internet options, the internet options wont open.
When I right click on my computer I get the error message "Run a DLL as an App has encountered a problem and needs to close.
I cannot get to my printer settings, either from within Word or from control panel/printers.
My virus program is up to date and finds no viruses. I run ad-ware and spy-bot weekly.
I have no idea what could be wrong or how to investigate this. Could it be a corrupt registry or dll file? How do I check this, any software available?? Thanks in advance for your help.
 
I forgot to mention that system restore, although it seems to do a restore, does not take care of any of these problems.
