this seems to have fixed it

"Here´s my first post!
I am using Windows XP with Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 with SP1 and a few updates
(last was Q330994).
I fixed this issue by clicking on "Start Menu" - "Run", and entering the following
entries on command prompt:

regsvr32 msscript.ocx [enter]
regsvr32 dispex.dll [enter]
regsvr32 vbscript.dll [enter]

That worked fine for me...Bye!"
