Problem with COMDLG32.DLL

I have had an ongoing problem printing any page off the Internet. Initially, the message stated the problem was a script error (here is my original post http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/winme/1089080009 thanks to the help I received before, but it didn't work!). I have since run SpyBot, and fixed all the errors, but one continues to resurface despite the fact that SpyBot says it is fixed each time. The problem is a DSO Exploit. Whenever I attempt to print now, a new message pops up and states, "Explorer has caused an error in COMDLG32.DLL. Explorer will now close. If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer." Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When I tried to use the "c:\program files\surfairy\uninstall.exe" in the Run box, a message pops up that says that location is unavailable. Could this could have anything to do with the recurring DSO Exploit in SpyBot?

Somone has suggested that I reinstall ME from the setup file. Do you think this would be a good idea? Can anything bad come of doing this?

First off, the DSO exploit is something that everyone i know has, it is something 
that Spybot will see on almost every computer but never be able to completely fix. 
 It will even show up on fresh installs, so don't worry about it. 

Second, my only guess for the that error message you are getting is to google for 
 comdlg32.dll  and replacing it with a fresh one.  Try looking on   www.dll-files.com
