Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type cmd, and then press 
ENTER. In the Command window, type regsvr32 mshtml.dll, and then press ENTER. 
Click OK to confirm that the registry entry has been added. In the Command 
window, type regsvr32 shdocvw.dll -i, and then press ENTER. Click OK to confirm 
that the registry entry has been added. In the Command window, type regsvr32 
shell32.dll -i, and then press ENTER. Click OK to confirm that the registry

Subject: [THIN] Strange Problem with Windows Explorer and IE


This is *REALLY* weird and I haven't been able to find anything out there that 
discusses this problem.
 
I have several Windows 2000 SP3 servers with IE6.1 installed.  When I open 
Windows Explorer, I get the list of available drives in the left-side pane, but 
the right side never shows.  The globe in the upper-right corner spins and 
spins, but never shows anything on the right side.  If I hit F5 to refresh, the 
list is displayed immediately.  Incredibly annoying....
 
Then to make things interesting, surfing web pages (i.e., Windows Update) is a 
challenge.  When I type a URL into IE, the globe spins and spins and never 
displays anything.  I hit F5, but nothing happens.  If I resize the window ever 
so slightly, the page is displayed.
 
HELP!  Either my server or I are going insane!  :)
 
Thanks!
