Missing files for update?

I keep getting the message that certain files are missing to complete the
update and then the prompt to have them automatically installed to fix the
problem. I do all that but keep getting put back to the same problem over and
over again. I have disabled the pop-up blocker and installed any ActiveX
controls as requested.
What now?

It has been posted that re-registering the MSXML3.DLL fixed this problem for some (no
guarantees)

Go to Start, select Run, and type:
regsvr32 MSXML3.dll
Click on OK or hit ENTER
