1. Off topic: Win95 DLLs
A few years ago, I D/Led IE4 and installed it. Well, something went wrong
during installation, and now I have file mixups. Programs would complain
about OLE 2. Later that year, I told somebody on an IRC channel about it,
and he handed me oleupd.exe. I ran it, and now programs also complain about
RPCRT4.DLL not having I_RpcAsyncSendReceive in it. I peeked at it with
QuickView, and I see garbage. Then I grab my recovery CD and find a fresh
RPCRT4.DLL file. Should I copy this to my HDD, assuming nothing will go
wrong like with the 2 computers before it, or should I get an expert's
opinion?

Personally, I would try uninstalling EI4 then do a clean reinstall. On the
other hand, although I know the download is huge but I would also recommend
upgrading to IE5. And if you want a browser that leaves a bunch of crap in
your Windows temp directory, you might even try Netscape (but IMHO IE5 is
much better in terms of not-so-obvious features).

1. Rename your current copy of RPCRT4.DLL to RPCRT4.DM or something like
that
2. Copy the RPCRT4.DLL from your CD to where your RPCRT4.DM is.
3. If all else fails you can now delete you new RPCRT4.DLL and rename
your
RPCRT4.DM back to RPCRT4.DLL.
