I've searched this group and the web a lot, and not found a solution to
the following problem.
I click on the "User Accounts" entry in the Control Panel, and nothing
happens. A very brief flicker of the hourglass, and that's it.
I've tried the solution at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/919292/en-us, and two of the entries
(Regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll and Regsvr32 themeui.dll) generate errors:
-Regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll results in "mshtml.dll was loaded, but the
DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be
registered"
-Regsvr32 themeui.dll results in "DllRegisterServer in themeui.dll
failed. Return code was: 0x80004005"
I found the following in various groups, tried the solutions, no avail:

I did everything discussed in that article, still the "User Accounts"
does not work.
I can state with certainty that there are no viruses/spyware hiding
about. My most recent scans for both were less than an hour ago, and
the system is clean.
I do notice when I click "User Accounts" and have the Task Manager open
that "mshta.exe" starts up. But it does nothing.
I'm using Windows XP Home, Service Pack 2 (which I reinstalled in an
attempt to resolve the problem, but it did not work).
I have no idea when the problem started, I only noticed it today (I
wanted to create an account for a family member). Currently there is
only one account (mine) and the "Guest" account on this machine.
I tried in Safe Mode, too...same results/indications.
