SP2 Installation Problem

I just installed SP2 and have a problem. When I try to start Security
Center, I get the following error message:

An exception occurred while trying to run "Shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL
wscui.cpl"

I've tried Start | Run | wscui.cpl, and that does not work, either. The
Security Center icon shows up in Control Panel, but I cannot run it. It
did run once.

Does anyone know how I can solve the problem? A Google search on web
pages or on newsgroups did not result in a single hit.

I reviewed it in detail. I cannot locate anything on the page that
suggests how I go about troubleshooting the problem of wsciu.cpl not
starting. Based on my limited understanding, I went through all of the
troubleshooting steps (netsh, etc.) but I saw nothing out of whack. The
services are listed as running.

Thanks for your opening words. :o)

As per the rest, if you don't find anything below, try another group. Good
luck and keep us posted.

I think I just read every search result, and I did not find but one in
which wscui.cpl would not open -- none in which an exception error was
generated. Are you familiar with this problem, or was the Google link
just a suggestion?

What newsgroup would you suggest? This one is already being posted to four.
