You can fix the problem by reinstalling Internet Explorer 5 or later versions.

Corrupted system COMCTL32.DLLProduct:Windows
Version:9x
OS:Windows 9x

Random errors in shared objects. Fex. mouse moving over desktop raises exception. Causes due change in COMCTL32.DLL file. File had equal size and date but part of then was overwritten by garbage (probably when system crashes). Find original file on
installation floppy (CD) and rewrite it (probably IE or Windows).


Or you can download the latest version of this .dll from   here..

It's really a minor inconvenience and you should be back up in running in a matter of minutes if you either reinstall IE 5 or greater or the file on the other link I posted.

You may have to boot into safe mode in order to do it.  Another way is to use your system restore feature in WinME to roll back to a date where your computer functioned OK.

When you do get it up and running, give it a thorough virus scan.
