Dear Friendly Knowledgeable XP Persons:
I have Windows XP Home and I always install upgrades whenever Win XP
says they're available. After one such upgrade about a week ago (at least
I *think* that was the cause), other Win XP Home users besides myself
could no longer:
- follow certain hyperlinks from IE 6 that brought up pop-up windows.
Nothing
happens. (For example, they can't compose a message for this newsgroup
using the browser interface -- there's no response to the [New] button.)
But, an interesting information dialog pops up
for other users (not me) when they right-click on
one of the un-followable links and select 'Print Target':
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line: 228
Char: 1
Error: 'dialogArgument__IE__PrintType is null or not an object'
Code: 0
URL: res://C:\WINDOWS\Wywtem32\shdoclc.dll/preview.dlg
This got me to thinking the whole problem is one of permissions. I have
some permissions that everyone needs -- but what? shdoclc.dll is
readable by all, as far as I can tell.
- send/receive email using Outlook (not Outlook Express). When they click
on
the Send/Receive button they get: "You don't have
appropriate permission to perform this operation." A showstopper.
I thought that by doing a System Restore to about one week back that I'd
get everybody back on track, but nooooo. I could go farther back, but I'd
rather be going *forward* and tracking the ever-better Win XP upgrades.
Plus I'd like to understand *why* this is happening.
The newest files in c:\windows\system32 are:
lsprst7.tgz 11/21
lsprst7.dll 11/21
nsprs.tgz 11/21
nsprs.dll 11/21
settingsbkup.sfw 11/20
settings.sfm 11/20

wpa.dbl 11/19
ssprs.tgz 11/17
ssprs.dll 11/10
serauth2.dll 11/10
serauth1.dll 11/10
Got any ideas?
