The regserv didn't work by itself. I ran it and renamed zipfldr.dll, however, xp
instantly created a new one.
What I did was let xp create the new dll, opened it in a text editor and deleted
the contents. After I saved it I reassociated and now it works.
[My boss bought machines with xp on them, I use 2000. Can anyone tell me anything
good about xp? It's unstable, it's slow, and the stupid rounded puffy interface is
for infants. I have yet to find one improvement, but I am willing to listen.]
