Michele,
This is Vista, correct ? You'll need to run an Elevated Command Prompt.
Locate cmd.exe and *right* click it, choose 'Run as administrator',
follow the prompts.
BTW, the command to register the file is
regsvr32 msxml4.dll
IF that does not resolve the reoffering issue, then please see:
Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2
(KB936181) may repeatedly appear in the update list on Microsoft Update
or on Windows Update
